Greg Abbott: 250,000 Families Changed Texas Forever | CPAC

Texas Governor Greg Abbott says more than 250,000 families have already applied for the state's new school choice program, calling it a transformational moment for education in Texas. Speaking at CPAC, Abbott explains how expanding educational freedom empowers parents while increasing competition among public, private, charter, and homeschool options.

Abbott argues that school choice strengthens every part of the education system by encouraging schools to deliver better outcomes for students. He also discusses curriculum reforms enacted in Texas, including legislation affecting DEI policies and school athletics, while emphasizing a renewed focus on reading, writing, math, and science. Closing the discussion, Abbott addresses the political future of Texas, pledging to keep the state red and defend what he describes as the values that have made Texas successful.
