What follows is borrowed completely from @RichardRohrOFM as shared by a trusted individual. An excellent description of the current state of TX politics: "I believe fear is almost always behind hate. Sometimes it looks like control, but even then, people are usually just afraid of losing something they think they have. It is almost always unrecognized or unaddressed fear that justifies hatred. The best and most convincing disguise for fear is seeming virtue, or godliness. Then it never looks like fear. It looks like reason, prudence, common sense, intelligence, the need for social order, morality, religion, obedience, justice, or even spirituality." We must fight fear and its associated hatred with all of our might.

Is there any doubt left that vouchers are a scam to benefit a few who already can afford to buy whatever they want for themselves and their children? Is that what we are about in TX?
📽️ A shocking report from @abc15 revealed luxury purchases throughout the ESA voucher program — all approved by Supt. Horne’s ADE. The #AZLeg designed the ESA program with NO controls & NO accountability -- so it should be NO surprise that waste, fraud, & abuse are rampant 😡

And there you have it. Does this sound like what we want in Texas?
💰 While most public school families struggle to pay out-of-pocket for sports equipment and fees, YOUR taxpayer dollars are being used to pay for #voucher-funded, exorbitant club sports #VoucherGrift #VoucherWatch
