Can you make one call to a Texas state representative's office this morning? These 24 mostly rural Republican TX House members are loyal friends of public education, standing with Democrats holding the line for Texas schoolchildren.
Five years in & three special sessions this year alone, rural Republicans are still voting against vouchers because they “pose a serious threat to the long-term financial health” of their public schools “without providing a meaningful benefit to [their] constituents.”
Script: I am a Texas (parent, teacher, student, community member.) Thank you for standing strong against vouchers. We appreciate your support for public education.
School vouchers drain money from neighborhood public schools that educate most Texas students. The TX House will debate HB1, the voucher bill, today. Read more here and here.
The livestream for today's debate is here and begins at 10:45 am.
Here are 5 reasons why we need to hold the line and vote no on this bill!
