Comments by Our Schools Our Democracy at the September 30, 2025 Comptroller hearing on proposed ESA/voucher rules. Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the proposed rules regarding the ESA…

Three charter school districts in Texas underreported the compensation paid to their top leaders. The same three districts have also had failing or near-failing performance ratings in recent years.

House leaders just dropped their FY26 education bill, slashing $12.1 billion (15%) in K-12 funding for public education. It guts the very programs that keep our public schools running — while boosting charter start-up/expansion to $500,000,000. What they’re cutting: Title I: –27% slashed — funding that provides targeted education services like remedial reading, with the worst impact targeting students in high-poverty schools in cities and rural communities. English Language Acquisition Grants: Gone. Title II-A (teacher training & support): Eliminated. Full-Service Community Schools: Zeroed out. Cuts of this magnitude will crowd classrooms, strip student supports, widen inequities, and push more schools into crisis — especially in rural and high-need communities. Send your letter now.

Sweeping and sudden funding changes this year put two revered after-school programs for low-income Texans and a rural teacher training initiative at risk of closure.
