THOUSANDS of families across our state have yearned to choose a school that's the best fit for their child.
Now that I signed school choice into law, Texas families have that option.
As a result, Texas is on a pathway to be #1 in education.
Catching up with @SchoolChoiceNow's Texas State Director @nathancunneen after a big weekend that included Governor Abbott signing historic school choice expansion in the Lone Star State.
I’ve met with so many families over the years who have longed for education freedom.
And that day has arrived.
Proud to sign school choice into law today.
Texas now empowers parents to choose the school that’s BEST for their child.
I was a school choice student.
Now, every student in Texas will have the same opportunity I did.
Thank you so much to the legislators and leaders who were brave enough to make it happen, and to the parents who drove them!
Texas’ school choice bill is an unprecedented victory for families, students, and the future of Texas!

What an incredible victory for Texas families! School choice empowers parents, puts students first, and sets Texas on the path to becoming #1 in education. Proud to vote YES on SB 2 — a historic step forward for school choice in our state! https://t.co/saIbqPIP0J
I was proud to vote for SB 2, the school choice bill, in the early morning hours — a bold step forward for education in Texas. I stand with President Trump in putting students and parents back in charge of their child’s education!
