A major new report from the progressive One Wisconsin Institute finds that the right-wing Bradley Foundation spent more than $108 million, working with 130 partner groups, to privatize public schools in Wisconsin between 2005 and 2014. During the same period, the state’s public schools experienced dramatic budget cuts.

The labor-community organization A Job Is A Right Campaign also exposed Bradley through a variety of reports, articles and a protest at the Bradley headquarters in August 1997.
