The governor is correct that he is “on the 1 yard line“ in getting his voucher plan. He has 99 more yards to go. No vouchers in Texas. Not now. Not ever. #txed #txlege

28 Chambers of Commerce via North Texas Commission declare Vouchers Are Bad for Business. Pay attention #txlege Greg Abbott listen to the business community: Our ISDs are key to economic success! Angie Chen Button #txed #stem Hispanic TXHSFB Coaches Association txhsfb(Tony Blalock) Morgan Meyer

Amen! Big Spring ISD strongly opposes all forms of vouchers as well!

The Governor has called for vouchers for all. With over 1 million students already in homeschool & private schools, it could cost up to $8 billion yearly. 90% of students are in public school, & they deserve full funding before diverting taxpayer $$$ for private school subsidies.

"As clergy members, we believe inserting chaplains in place of professional counselors into our schools is a grave threat to democracy and to the well-being of children across the state." -Interfaith Alliance of TX's Andy Stoker #🟦 & Cantor Sheri Allen usatoday.com/story/opinion/…

Public education holds the tension of free expression and common civility. Let's fully fund our schools with trained teachers, administration, and staff, not muddy the waters with untrained, unaccountable "chaplains." usatoday.com/story/opinion/… Interfaith Alliance @umcjustice

[1/7] The House is debating the Interior and Environment appropriations bill, which is filled with attacks against the LGBTQI+ community. We urge the House to reject it.⬇️🧵

People of faith — urgent action needed today!!!! WE MUST SPEAK OUT NOW urging representatives NOT TO PASS appropriation bills that contain anti-LGBTQ provisions, called "riders". #FaithForEquality support.interfaithalliance.org/a/opposeattack…

Great turnout in support of #publiceducation at the TransCend4 symposium! Networking w/Scott Milder, Dr. Lizzy Johnson and new friends Team Dallas ISD. We, Pastors for Children, love to affirm and inspire our beloved on the front lines of the future! (Thanks Jaime Casap for a challenging message!)

Vouchers Lose! The amendment to strip the voucher from HB 1 passed on an 84-63 vote! There will be no private school vouchers in Texas! God bless the #txlege House! God bless Texas public education! God bless Texas! #txed Diane Ravitch 🇺🇸🇺🇦📚🌈🗽🌹🇨🇱❤️ @carolburris @NPEaction

WE ARE THE LEADERS WE HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR. We have to believe that if American democracy is to be saved and reimagined.

“…We specifically oppose tuition tax credits, school vouchers, or any other mechanism that directly or indirectly allows government funds to support religious schools at the primary and secondary level.” (Book of Resolutions, 5012) sbee.link/rtpn79h4yk

We cannot do the work of transforming the world unless we are in interdependent relationships—the work is too vast and complex for any one of us. …Let’s reach toward each other. -Akaya Windwood
