Texas almost approved a school voucher program in the 1950s – to avoid desegregation. School vouchers: a terrible idea then, a terrible idea now. #txlege #TBT

Texas almost approved a school voucher program in the 1950s – to avoid desegregation.

A bill to give Texas families public funds to avoid integrated schools almost became law in 1957.

THIS CANNOT BE OVERSTATED: #SB7 is voter suppression & a threat to democracy itself in Texas. It was drafted with the sole purpose of diluting the electoral power of voters of color across our state, particularly in Black & Latino communities. It MUST be stopped. #txlege

JUST IN: Texas lawmakers released the final version of voter suppression bill #SB7 under the cover of night on a holiday weekend. The bill will make it much harder and scarier to vote — in a state that’s already the most difficult place to vote in the country. #TXDeservesBetter
