Because this money is intended for education. It's bad enough that vouchers steal funds from public schools to send to private schools (which do not have to meet the standards of public schools), but just spending it unrelated expenses?
It's more that they're trying to make these vouchers seem enticing, so that parents will withdraw their kids from public schools, and force public schools to fold due to a lack of students and funding.
