Letters to the editor
Dear Editor,
I’m concerned about the message regarding Texas State Sen. Bryan Hughes’ vote on Senate Bill 1, in The Wood County Monitor “Letters to the Editor” of Thursday, Oct. 19, 2023, page 2A.
My rebuttal:
Dear Senator Hughes,
I do not concur with that lone voice in Trenton telling you to vote “no.” One of the main purposes of this legislation is to give Christian parents the right to choose; rather than to have the Texas State Education Agency tell them otherwise. I didn’t see any indication in the legislation that there would be “no accountability” for Texas state funds. I do not believe that any Christian school should be “accountable” to the Texas State Education Agency, under any circumstances whatsoever. Their repeated God-lessness has brought our schools to this juncture in the first place.
I’m a long-standing native Texan, school tax paying, landowning, constituent that believes that all Texas parents have the right to choose where their children receive their education. That right should never have been removed from them by an “agency” edict.
Always my best,
James R. Carter, Sr.
Mineola
