In Surveying State Legislators, EdChoice Vice President of Research and author Paul DiPerna reports findings from a phone survey of 344 state legislators from across the country. With this research, we sought to better understand what state legislators think about a number of education topics, how they feel about the profession, sources of information they trust and how often they consider different sources of influence when making legislative decisions. We believe this is the first systematic phone-only survey of this population in more than 15 years.
