the question is actually, what is OP trying to do by insinuating bad conduct by PAVE? Clearly OP is threatened by PAVE. Why is that, and how do we feel about charters post pandemic school closure? Personally, I used to buy the basic progressive anti-charter stance, but no longer. I don’t think it’s anything but a union-led attack. That’s not to say charters did better during the pandemic, but that I don’t trust the anti-charter faction to give an accurate public policy assessment of modes of public education that sidestep unions (charters, vouchers, testing, etc).

No, the question is actually what is PAVE trying to do. I really don't care what motivations a DCUM poster might have. I do care what motivations a well funded lobbying group might have. The fact that several have shown up here to defend them without addressing what they want, suggests that what they want won't be too popular.

their motivation is to get the in-person engagement of an under-resourced group of parents who need financial assistance to get to the meeting. It’s not uncommon to offer payments to focus group. it reflects that their time is valuable. [/quote]

That's the purpose of the organization? To get under-resourced parents to go to meetings? I've seen a lot of large organizations spend money on worthless things, so I won't rule it out, but seems they likely have an end goal that is very different from merely getting these parents to meetings.
