The American Federation of Children and the Career College and Schools of Texas PAC Back Governor Abbott’s Vision for Educating Texans
AUSTIN – Governor Greg Abbott today received the endorsement of the American Federation of Children (AFC) and the Career College and Schools of Texas PAC (CCST PAC), underscoring his commitment to put parents first, expand educational opportunity, and set the standard for education.
“Texas is on the path to becoming number one in education,” said Governor Abbott. “By expanding school choice and career training, we are empowering parents, equipping students with real-world skills, and building a strong, highly skilled workforce that will keep Texas competitive for generations to come.”
“Governor Abbott is one of the most legendary figures in the history of the school choice movement,” said AFC Victory Fund CEO Tommy Schultz. “His unwavering leadership in the fight to empower families with real educational freedom gave Texas families a victory after nearly 25 years of special interests blocking parents from great educational options. His commitment to school choice and his strong advocacy for Texas Education Freedom Accounts demonstrates his determination to ensure that no child’s educational destiny is limited by their ZIP-code-assigned school. Governor Abbott understands that parents – not unions or bureaucracies – should make the decisions that shape their children’s futures. We are proud to fully support this champion for parents and students to continue as Governor of the great state of Texas.”
“The Career College and Schools of Texas PAC is proud to endorse Governor Greg Abbott for reelection,” said CCST PAC Board Chair Ben Arriola. “Governor Abbott has been a strong advocate for young Texans pursuing Trades and technical careers. We are grateful for his unwavering support as we work to help graduates translate their skills into the workforce.”
Under Governor Abbott’s leadership, Texas is the nation’s foremost advocate for parental control in education. Last session, the Governor made history by enacting the country’s largest day one school choice initiative. Governor Abbott’s vision puts Texas on the path to be No. 1 in education. His efforts ensure Texas continues to set the standard for innovation in the classroom and creating pathways beyond graduation.
