Texas teachers to rally against school vouchers, demand increased public school funding at Capitol
Texas teachers to rally at State Capitol Saturday opposing the governor's focus on education savings accounts.
The school calendar limits what teachers can do to reach out to their own lawmakers, but they're still planning on having their voices heard. Zarifis says, “The governor so heartlessly calls a special session while teachers are teaching, will not stop us from showing up. We will be there, teachers will be there. We will be lobbying our elected officials.”
School vouchers defund public schools. Somewhat similar to how tax cuts for one group raise taxes for everyone else.
Are you trying to tell me that trickle down economics was all a lie‽ /s
What? No, obviously the savings are moved on down the line, and creates more jobs too!

The thing about vouchers, or any government handout really, is that without corresponding price controls the price just goes up to match the voucher.
