Best explanation I could find.

Asked my son about Ballotpedia and he says that he thinks it is neutral. Just presents both sides of an issue if the information is available. Not much of a campaign against Amendment 1, but I'm not sure I want to support a tax cut that will take funds from other groups. I agree that the childcare situation is not good, but this seems like a convoluted way to help. I'm always leery of tax cuts!
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
