School Vouchers (Policy topic — South Central Town Hall, S01E16)

A contested education policy topic invoked in the presidential motorcade voiceover: 'school vouchers' is named as the subject of a 3:00 town hall in South Central. The item has no single physical form in the processed material; it manifests through talking points, public signage at the town hall, and the scheduling and rhetoric that shape the President's day. Characters treat it as a strategic political object — a flashpoint that compresses votes, donors, moral authority and media optics into a single policy decision.
