Tennessee lawmakers on Thursday approved a universal private school voucher bill that expands the number of families who can use taxpayer money to pay for tuition at private schools, regardless of their income.

House lawmakers voted 54–44 to pass the bill, and the Senate later voted 20–13 to approve it.
