Major Wins in Texas Parental Rights Cases
The Family Freedom Project (FFP) has achieved significant legal victories in Texas concerning parental rights. In the first case, the Texas Supreme Court restricted Child Protective Services' (CPS) power to terminate parental rights over minor bureaucratic issues, requiring clear evidence of noncompliance with essential court-ordered tasks instead. In the second case, the court upheld a Court of Appeals decision that judges cannot interfere with parental rights unless necessary to protect a child from significant harm, a stance the FFP consistently advocates, though the Supreme Court has yet to issue a definitive statewide ruling on this standard.

Electing Officials Who Will Protect Families
This week we're discussing the controversy surrounding Texas Representative Keith Bell. Bell expressed reluctance to defend a homeschooling family whose son was wrongfully removed by CPS, fearing political repercussions. Despite his proclaimed pro-family stance, his voting record, including opposition to homeschooling rights and educational choice, suggests otherwise. This stance contrasts with other lawmakers who actively defended the family. We'll delve into the implications of Bell's actions and the broader impact on homeschooling rights and political accountability.

Next Steps for Parental Choice in Education
In our recent episode, we discussed the demise of the parental choice in education legislation, known as Education Savings Accounts (ESAs), during the fourth special session on November 17th. It seems Governor Abbott is now shifting his focus towards advancing educational opportunities for Texas families through the upcoming elections, as the battle for pro-parental rights legislation continues against strong opposition from teacher unions and the public school lobby. The debate ultimately hinges on the ability to elect or defeat candidates in the Republican primary next March.
