At the Texas Capitol Friday, Democratic state lawmakers gave Governor Greg Abbott’s school choice proposal an “F.”

State Representative Gina Hinojosa, D-Austin and member of the Mexican American Legislative Caucus said at a news conference, “We unequivocally stand against any scheme to defund our public schools.”

During his State of the State address Thursday night, the Governor said he wants to provide taxpayer-funded Education Savings Accounts, which would allow students to go to private school.
