Texas Governor Greg Abbott is celebrating a monumental victory for parental rights and educational freedom as over 100,000 students have already applied for the state's groundbreaking school choice program – proving that parents are absolutely fed up with the failing public education monopoly.
"This is the biggest and best rollout of school choice in the history of the United States of America," Abbott proudly declared on Glenn Beck's program, and he's absolutely right. While leftist teachers' unions and education bureaucrats panic, Texas families are voting with their feet – and their children's futures.
"It's really a gamechanger for education in our state," Abbott explained. "One thing about school choice is it provides school competition. What we want to see is competition in public education, private education – competition makes everybody better."
This is exactly what America needs – real competition that forces schools to actually SERVE students instead of pushing woke indoctrination. For too long, parents have been trapped in a system where failing schools get rewarded with more taxpayer money while kids suffer through critical race theory, gender ideology, and dumbed-down curricula.
"Competition makes everybody better," Abbott noted, highlighting how market forces will revolutionize education when parents have real choices.
The explosive demand proves what conservatives have known all along – given the choice, parents will flee the government education plantation faster than you can say "parental rights." These aren't just numbers; they represent 100,000 families who refuse to let radical educators experiment on their children.
This success story should be a roadmap for every red state governor watching. While blue states double down on failing schools and divisive politics, Texas is empowering parents and putting children first.
The education establishment's worst nightmare is coming true: parents are taking back control. When schools have to actually compete for students instead of enjoying a government-guaranteed monopoly, suddenly they remember their job is education, not indoctrination.
Will other governors follow Abbott's lead and give parents the educational freedom they deserve?
