Texas Residents Take Action: Contact Your Senator to Ensure All Students are Prioritized for School Choice

On Friday, the Senate introduced SB2, a $1 billion Education Savings Account (ESA) proposal.

What’s Included:

All students, regardless of income, can apply for $11,500 ESA for educational expenses including private school tuition.

How Funds Are Allocated:

If fewer applicants than funds: Everyone gets an ESA.

If more applicants than funds:

80% of funds go to low-income students who attended public school the previous year.

The remaining $200 million goes to a lottery for others.

What We’re Advocating For:

We’re pushing to prioritize all low-income students, even if they didn’t attend public school the previous year.

What You Can Do:

See below to send a respectful message to Lt.Gov Patrick and Senate Education Chair Brandon Creighton urging them to prioritize ALL low income students.
