1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,160
If there is a school that allows boys into the

2
00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:06,400
girls' restroom or boys into the locker room
or the

3
00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:07,360
showers.

4
00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:09,360
Where's that happening in Texas?

5
00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:11,840
Where in the deep red state of Texas is that

6
00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:12,480
happening?

7
00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:14,880
That's not happening anywhere in Texas.

8
00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:17,680
And I don't agree with that policy.

9
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:20,880
Should I not be given the opportunity for an
education

10
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:24,240
savings account to send my child to a
different school?

11
00:00:24,240 --> 00:00:25,680
Yes, that is absolutely correct.

12
00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:27,760
If you have a disagreement with a policy, you
can

13
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:29,120
take that up with your ISD.

14
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:30,400
You can take that up with your school.

15
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:32,320
You can bring it up in a PTA teacher meeting.

16
00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:33,680
You could bring it up with the teachers.

17
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:36,000
That's the great thing about public schools is
that it

18
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:38,640
is a democracy where the people are in
control.

19
00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:42,560
So, no, choosing a voucher system that will
completely defund

20
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:45,760
it and destroy the entire public education
system throughout the

21
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:47,920
entirety of the state of Texas is not the way

22
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:48,720
to go about this.

23
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:52,240
If you have a disagreement on a particular
policy.

24
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:55,280
Is it your opinion that a sexual assault
survivor on

25
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:59,200
the campus of a public school, that that
girl's siblings

26
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:01,840
have to remain in that school and attend that
school

27
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:04,800
where the sexual assault happened because the
parents don't have

28
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:06,320
a choice to take their child somewhere else.

29
00:01:06,320 --> 00:01:07,600
Is that your opinion?

30
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:08,640
No, that's not the case.

31
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:11,360
You can send your kids to private school right
now.

32
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:12,880
You already have school choice.

33
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:14,400
You have the choice to send your kid to a

34
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:15,200
private school.

35
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:16,880
You just you just pay for it.

36
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:18,400
That's just a thing.

37
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:20,560
No one's forcing your kids to go to public
school,

38
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:20,880
man.

39
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:22,240
No one's forcing that.

40
00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:24,880
And if a horrible action like said thing took
place,

41
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,040
if a rape was to happen, that's something that
again

42
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:29,760
should be taken up with that school, with that
school

43
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:32,400
board ISD in the next PTA meeting.

44
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,600
We should not be defunding every single public
school throughout

45
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,960
all of Texas because of an incident that
happens at

46
00:01:38,960 --> 00:01:40,320
one particular place.
