Deason is using his nonprofit Texans for Free Enterprise and joining up with former Chairman Larry Taylor, former Rep. Simmons, and others
Saying he wants to bring every idea to the table, Dallas GOP megadonor Doug Deason shared with Quorum Report on Tuesday that he’s entering the “school choice” debate with an eye toward giving parents “a much stronger voice and say in the educational choices for their children.”
Using his 501(c)4 Texans for Free Enterprise, which was first launched when Deason and megadonor Bob Rowling wanted to push the legislature toward reforms in title insurance, Deason is now bringing in former GOP lawmakers and other experts to tackle the school choice debate.
Following the release of committees last week and the State of the State Address this week, Gov. Greg Abbott and Texas House leadership are perhaps on a collision course over Education Savings Accounts/school vouchers, which Deason supports.
