The Texas House approved the plan, part of a push by President Trump’s allies to offer up to $10,000 for private school, home-school or virtual learning.

The Texas House is taking up a sweeping private school voucher plan on Wednesday that is a top priority for Gov. Greg Abbott and would give students roughly $10,000 a year in taxpayer money to spend on private education.

The Texas House gave initial approval to its priority school voucher legislation early Thursday, marking an end to years of resistance at the lower chamber to proposals that would use taxpayer dollars for private schooling. Senate Bill 2 passed 85-63, largely along party lines.
