In today's Morning Edition local block from the KERA Newsroom: We’ve been following the plan to remake Dallas ISD schools known as “home rule.” Rick Holter gets to the source of the controversial plan and talks to someone who had a major role in writing the home rule law: Former US Education Secretary Margaret Spellings.
