State Rep. James Talatico: "Greg Abbott calls his voucher scam 'school choice.' But we already have school choice - neighborhood schools, charters, magnets, academies & more. Vouchers don't give us choice. Vouchers give our tax dollars to unaccountable private schools that can discriminate against our kids."
State Rep. David Lowe: "I keep seeing my colleagues post about victories this legislative session. To be clear, we have had ZERO victories. The Democrats are winning every day that leadership runs out the clock."
Rep. Beth Van Duyne: "Democrats and their cronies have been padding their pockets with taxpayer funds. @HouseGOP, @POTUS, @ElonMusk, and @DOGE are keeping our promises to the American people by cutting this waste, fraud, and abuse!"
Rep. Jasmine Crockett: "Even on this propaganda machine, the truth is trending .... medication cost increases make sense for who? Oh, and it increases our costs via the federal government, too, but carry on in your ignorance. Higher costs, less supply, higher unemployment = RECESSION!"
