Several Texas House Republicans who voted against school choice were endorsed by the teachers union. This has led to all 16 of them, who are running for election, facing primary challengers. The issue has sparked a debate between conservatives and liberals, with conservatives strongly supporting school choice. Texas Rep. Charlie Geren, who was endorsed by the teachers union and voted against school choice, has now gained a primary opponent who supports school choice. The situation has raised questions about the motives of these Republicans and their alignment with the teachers union.
Why would a Republican in TExas vote against school choice for the parents and children in their district. There is not enough cash in the teacher’s unions’ slush funds to wipe away the moral stain. https://t.co/DoJkNCDIkV

18 of the 21 "Republicans" in the Texas House who voted against school choice were endorsed by the teachers union. Only 16 of them are running for election. They now all have primary challengers. Play stupid games win stupid prizes. #txlege
Conservatives strongly support school choice. Liberals are against school choice. Makes you wonder about the Republican Texas House members who voted with the liberals against school choice. A change is coming on March 5th. https://t.co/iXCoxoQKHH
