- In an interview with Ami Magazine, Assemblyman Avi Schnall took a jab at those who opposed his candidacy
Q: Why was there resistance in the beginning?
A: “Whenever there is change, there is resistance. It’s always like that,” Schnall said. “In the end, we had a very nice turnout from the community. But we've learned that the people who make the most noise often have the smallest voice. Just because people make noise doesn’t mean they actually have a voice.”
Regarding the involvement of Agudath Israel in the school choice bill, Assemblyman Schnall noted that Rabbi A.D. Motzen, the national director of government affairs at Agudath Israel, was the one who wrote the bill.
- Agudath Israel published an open letter from Rabbi A.D. Motzen thanking all those who contributed to the national school choice effort dating back more than a decade. Notably absent from the letter was any mention of the Orthodox Union Advocacy Center or its involvement. In addition, only Republican lawmakers were thanked, as all Democrats voted against the bill.
