Abbott took the stage at the Parents Matter Tailgate at Cornerstone Christian School seeking support for his controversial school voucher bill.
in San Antonio with a dose of politics on the sidelines.Friday night, Abbott took the stage at the Parents Matter Tailgate at Cornerstone Christian School, hosted by the Texas Public Policy Foundation. The rally was one of at least two held over the past two months, the other taking place in Dallas in September.The school voucher bill has been highly controversial.
If passed, the school choice bill would allow families to use taxpayer-funded education savings accounts so their children can attend private schools. "What parent wouldn't want to sacrifice for their children for their future? This makes a way so they won't have to sacrifice everything for their future," said Jimenez."If they get the vouchers, parents who think they can't afford it, they can."
"We rank 43rd for per student funding. That's not acceptable and to take more money away from our underfunded public schools, that's something that we want to protest," said Michelle Lowe Solis, Volunteer with Mothers Against Greg Abbott and a leader of Bexar County Democrats."Our public school teachers are among the worst paid in the nation. $7,500 on average below the national average.
