“As one of the only members who has taught children in public schools, I’m not going to be lectured about being pro-kid.
The reason I ran for office was for kids.
And the reason I’m opposed to these private school voucher scams is because I’m pro-kid.”
Public schools accept all children.
No questions asked.
Private schools select their children.
That’s why they are private.
Public tax dollars should support ONLY public schools.
Private money should pay for private schools.
Any questions?

@writeexpress@GregAbbott_TX I see a fault in your reasoning. AVERAGE test scores include all students. Harvard and UT are not taking average students. They take the top percentage. Public funds should go for ALL kids. Talk to some of those high school grads in the top 6% before you claim failure.
It’s not “school choice.”
It’s not “parent choice.”
It’s not “educational freedom.”
It’s not “parent empowerment.”
It’s vouchers.
It’s taking money from #txed school children to subsidize rich private schools.
And we’re NOT going to let you do it, @GregAbbott_TX.

With just over a week remaining in the 88th legislative session, we call on the Texas Senate to fund Texas public schools, not voucher schemes. Full statement: https://t.co/AZcOBQWwj5
We cannot thank God enough for our rock-solid, deeply moral rural Republican and urban Democrat #txlege House members who once again save #txed from the corruption of vouchers.
God loves you and so do we!
No vouchers in Texas. Not now. Not ever.

@SpyderTheGod@BetoORourke Football analogy - UT plays Podunk Junior College. UT players trained their entire lives and have world class facilities, basically every advantage. PJC has players who have literally never even seen the game. UT wins and gets an A. PJC is deemed a failure.
After we learn a new sound it becomes the “secret password” for entering the classroom, allowing for several extra daily repetitions. The kids ❤️ it - and don’t worry about the ones who forget; if they don’t copy the child in front of them I supply the sound for them to repeat.
