Governor Greg Abbott signed a $1 billion education voucher law in Texas, allowing parents to receive $10,000 per year to opt out of the state public school system. The move is part of a broader conservative effort to remake American education. Opponents argue the scheme diverts essential resources from underfunded rural public schools.

The decision to pass over Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro for the VP slot is attributed to his support for school vouchers, which reportedly alienated powerful teachers' unions. Shapiro's speaking style is compared to Barack Obama's cadence. The analysis suggests that union pressure was a primary factor in the Harris campaign's final selection.
