Parents across Texas are working hard to educate their lawmakers and communities about the benefits of empowering parents with transparency, quality education, respect, and choice. We aren’t stopping until every parent has access to an education savings account. That’s why parents and coalition members are gathering on August 12th to support the House Public Education Committee as it discusses the policy and implementation of ESAs.

As we approach this historic legislative session, we must remember the efforts of the thousands of parents, education advocates, and elected leaders that have brought us to this moment.

Join the Parent Empowerment Coalition in celebrating the fight to bring school choice to Texas.

Complimentary lunch will be provided for in-person attendees.
