NEW: Parents are rightly angry over @AustinISD's plans to close schools and redraw attendance zones. The district should ditch a divisive system that lets government-drawn maps determine kids' fate. Our president @timderoche in the @statesman: na2.hubs.ly/H01TkX40

"It might feel good right now to threaten Jimmy Kimmel, but when it is used to silence every conservative in America, we will regret it." U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz slammed Federal Communications Commission Chairman Brendan Carr for pressuring ABC to pull comedian Jimmy Kimmel off the airwaves, warning fellow Republicans the threats create an "unbelievably dangerous" precedent that could haunt conservatives. The Texas Republican, in a new episode of his podcast released Sept. 19, compared Carr's tactics to those of a mob boss as he denounced the FCC chairman's threats to revoke ABC's television license before the network indefinitely suspended "Jimmy Kimmel Live!"

🎉 It’s official: Governor @GregAbbott_TX has signed SB 2, establishing a universal ESA in Texas! Texas is putting families in control—and giving kids the freedom to learn in the way that best works for them. Thank you @DanPatrick, @Burrows4TX, @CreightonForTX & @BradBuckleyDVM for your leadership! #txlege

Passing the Texas Education Freedom Act sends a message to all of Texas. It tells the next generation of Texas leaders: your path should fit your purpose — your ambition is greater than any system. And it tells every parent in Texas: you are trusted, you are respected, and you are in charge. #txlege #sb2

The solution to chronic absenteeism in schools isn’t more laws or law enforcement. It’s offering a better product so kids are engaged and want to be there.

VICTORY: The Texas House just passed SB 2, bringing universal education freedom one step closer to reality. This would be the largest ESA launch in U.S. history. Thank you to @BradBuckleyDVM for being a true champion for Texas families! #txlege yeseverykid.com/press/yes-ever…

👏 Thank you, @GovAbbott, for naming school choice an emergency item this session! EVERY Texas kid deserves access to the education that best fits their needs. #txlege

Universal education freedom has the potential to empower parents, boost student outcomes, and foster innovation. Thank you for your leadership, @GovAbbott!

"School choice is about opening doors, not closing them. It’s about opportunity, accountability and the recognition that one model doesn’t work for every student. It’s about a rising tide of achievement that lifts all boats." ~@JebBush in @The74 👏👏 the74million.org/article/jeb-bu…
