Accuracy in Media Senior Advisor Corey DeAngelis discusses the Texas school choice victory

Accuracy in Media Senior Advisor Corey DeAngelis appeared on the Jimmy Barrett Show on KPRC to discuss the school choice victory in Texas that AIM helped make possible.

DeAngelis called this “the biggest day one victory for school choice in U.S. history” and discussed how the Texas school choice law allows all families, regardless of their income level, to apply, with enough funding for approximately 100,000 students in the first year.

DeAngelis compared the Texas school choice law to Florida and Arizona, where there is no cap on the number of students who can utilize the school choice scholarships. Florida, for example, has 500,000 students who are utilizing school choice scholarships today.

The progress thus far in Texas was made partly possible due to AIM’s investigative work. AIM’s undercover, hidden-camera investigations caught the attention of Gov. Greg Abbott and Kex Paxton, who not only took action against the school districts whose work AIM exposed, but also helped make school choice possible.
