   Whether you’re a Republican, Democrat, or something else — Texans deserve
   the final say over something as consequential as public school funding.
   But Abbott’s Republican House refused to allow an amendment to this bill
   that would put the question to the voters.
   Republicans passed this bill behind closed doors — because they knew the
   public would reject it.
   To apply for a private school voucher, you have to prove U.S. citizenship.
   This means thousands of undocumented children will be singled out and left
   behind in underfunded, neglected public schools.
   This proposed law is about power, profits, and politics — not what’s best
   for our children. Greg Abbott and his cronies:
     * Don’t believe in the common good — so they’re gutting a system built
       to serve everyone.
     * Can’t stand working people having power — so they’re starving
       teachers’ unions.
     * Never miss a payday — so they’re funneling $1 billion of public
       dollars to their private education donors.
   Texans deserve better — and we won’t back down. Powered by People is
