If anything, the estimated effect shows that enacting school choice results in private schools charging lower tuitions than they otherwise would"

BREAKING: Texas Governor GREG ABBOTT just released a statement indicating he would VETO the House's watered-down version of the Senate's bill to fund students instead of systems.

He is not messing around.

Texans will get true education freedom this year. BASED GREG ABBOTT: "failure to expand the scope of school choice to something close to the Senate version or the original House version of the Senate bill will necessitate special sessions. Parents and their children deserve no less."

Gov. Abbott just laid down the gauntlet.
