The Texas PTA is furious at Lt. Governor Dan Patrick and his allies in the State Senate.
Just when it seemed that the legislature was going to increase funding for the state’s woefully underfunded public schools, the Senate insisted on attaching voucher legislation. The House had already defeated vouchers, but the Senate came back a second time and was defeated again. The Senate held the budget hostage.
Meanwhile due to the stubborn Dan Patrick, millions of children across the state will be deprived of the schools they need.
Way to go, Texas PTA!
Diane Ravitch's blog 
“. . . millions of children across the state will be deprived of the schools they need.”
Minor correction but necessary to make the thought ring more true:
“. . . millions of children across the state will be deprived of the proper schooling they deserve and the adequate funding that has been declared by the courts.”

Patrick is another fanatic. He is holding the children of Texas hostage. When are the people of Texas going to cast out these flat earthers? Texas has the potential to turn blue in the future as many people from the northeast and California are moving there for jobs, and the second generation Latinos, the fastest growing segment of the population, will most likely vote for democrats..
