Texas Republican primary voters overwhelmingly support school choice, with 88% in favor. However, there is pushback from teacher unions and critics who argue against the plan, accusing some of hypocrisy and aiming to dismantle public schools. The debate revolves around empowering parents versus increasing bureaucratic control in education.
Talking points directly from the top of a government school system. They want more power instead of empowering parents across the great state of Texas. Sad to see…https://t.co/2wJ6fQZjr1 @DeAngelisCorey @GregAbbott_TX https://t.co/ewQmPdRXq4 https://t.co/l4HJZXHO2a
“Empower parents” by stripping their right to elect local school board representation, placing MORE power in the hands of unelected bureaucrats (who select board members themselves), & all w/ no public meeting requirements 🤡 Interesting strategy, friend! #txed #txlege https://t.co/ANTI9GZT3o https://t.co/JTBbRlo7d5
We don’t need a top-down, big-govt approach to schooling that makes education worse for students and hurts teachers’ ability to negotiate higher salaries. Some folks just can’t see past their talking points of the teacher unions and Big Ed. Empower parents, not bureaucrats!… https://t.co/AXffZu4phj
THE ENDGAME FOR TIM DUNN, FARRIS WILKS AND THEIR PROPAGANDA MACHINE, THE TEXAS SCORECARD, IS COMPLETE DESTRUCTION OF OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS. #txlege
Teacher survey shows big pushback on Texas school choice plan https://t.co/LZBjQxuSgF
88% of Texas Republican primary voters support school choice. You voted against it. You are committed to trapping other people’s kids in failing government schools. You sent your kid to private school then voted against school choice for others. Hypocrite. https://t.co/eAbnhvlViE
Texas parents want school choice, but the teacher unions and big Ed cronies, like you, don’t want it as you all just want to grow government schools without accountability for their failures. It’s sad. #txlege #txed #texas @GregAbbott_TX https://t.co/lHPQvWnRaK
