On Apr 16–17, the TX House passed HB 2 (school finance) & SB 2 (school vouchers). HB 2 heads to the Senate; SB 2 likely goes to conference. Critical weeks ahead—stay tuned for how you can help protect TX public schools! #SaveTXSchools #NoVouchers

72% of private schools in Texas are located in 10 counties, according to the Texas Private School Accreditation Commission (TEPSAC). 158 out of 254 Texas counties have no private school option.

On this eve of the voucher vote in the TX House I give thanks to the MANY friends I have made along the way who have put their heart & soul into protecting our kids & neighborhood schools. Team TX Public Schools is 💪🏽 & it’s been a privilege to work along side you.

Greg Abbott is bringing his private school voucher scam to the House floor next week. Thousands have already shown up—now it’s your turn. Join us at the Capitol and tell lawmakers: Vote NO on vouchers. Texans say NO to the billionaire scam.

Wear your Save Texas Schools tee and join us near the Capitol! We’ll be at First United Methodist (same spot as our first rally) to check in, grab materials, and fuel up before we head out. Other groups are mobilizing too—let’s pack the Capitol and fill the House gallery!

Today’s the day! Come out to Dobie Middle School Cafeteria at 5:00 PM to show your support and help SAVE DOBIE! The community discussion starts at 5:30 PM. Dobie is more than test scores — we are a vital community. Let’s make our voices heard! #SaveDobie #WeAreDobie

This is a critical moment—schools are closing, teachers are losing jobs, and vital programs like libraries & fine arts are being cut. The Governor is holding funding hostage for private school vouchers pushed by billionaire donors who’ve never supported public ed.

Time to act—every day until the vote’s done! Email & call all 150 TX House reps. Lawmakers need to hear loud & clear: raise the basic allotment by $1,300! #FundTexasSchools

Vouchers are no better for your family than the tariff tax is for your 401(k), layoffs are for your income, or cuts to Medicaid are for health care in your community. Billions of dollars can’t fix bad ideas.

The same people who have forced our #txed students to take the STAAR test in the name of "accountability" now want free money for private schools with NO rules. Republicans and Democrats alike are standing up to @gregabbott_tx's voucher scam—and we won't back down.

"The David Award for the group courageously standing up to powerful forces on behalf of public schools & their students won by Pastors for Texas Children, who has fought against @GregAbbott_TX & billionaires who want to impose vouchers, despite their failure everywhere." #txlege
