Pioneer's Josh Archambault has been fighting the good fight against the health care payment reform legislation that the House just passed. Here's a video clip from the very substantive series he released in the run-up to Beacon Hill's deliberations.
And for Josh's series of blogs, click here: http://www.pioneerinstitute.or... Today's blog, The Myth of Cost Control Legislation, is a great re-cap of why passing this bill was such a mistake: "Changing 18% of our state economy with little debate, no hard questions, in a few hours, no problem? Was this how we did it for health reform 1.0?"
Read Josh's op-ed in today's Boston Globe: "Without patient-centered health plans, Mass. is using the same tired script"

Pioneer spends a lot of time promoting school choice - but does the public agree with us? We wanted to find out, so we worked with national pollster David Paleologos to produce a public opinion survey on whether likely Massachusetts voters support more school choice. Find out for yourself: http://pioneerinstitute.org/pd... And the press release here: http://pioneerinstitute.org/pd...
For a case study on why we need more school choice, check out Jim Stergios' blog on Boston's Madison Park voc-tech high school, where students are absent for a month on average and have GPAs no higher than 2.0.
