SB24 imposes a specific political viewpoint on impressionable children by teaching students that communism, socialism, and collectivism are inherently anti-American and anti-freedom. It fails to distinguish between collectivism and socialism as ideologies and the authoritarian regimes that have applied them in practice. Instead of encouraging students to critically analyze different political and economic systems, the bill frames these ideologies as existential threats and anti-American while implying that America and free-market enterprise are inherently good—turning education into political conditioning rather than genuine learning.

SB2/HB3 imposes a specific ideological agenda on Texas education by redirecting taxpayer dollars to private schools under the guise of “school choice.” It fails to acknowledge the harm that voucher programs cause to public schools, instead portraying privatization as a universal good while ignoring its impact on funding and equity. Rather than strengthening public education for all students, the bill prioritizes an unregulated voucher system that benefits private institutions at the expense of public schools—turning education funding into a tool for dismantling public education rather than improving it.

SB10 forces Texas public schools to display the Ten Commandments in every classroom, violating the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment, which prohibits government endorsement of religion. The first line, "Thou shalt have no other gods before me," directly promotes monotheism, excluding students of different faiths or no faith. This state-imposed religious messaging pressures students to conform to a specific religious viewpoint, undermining religious neutrality and creating a hostile learning environment. It alienates non-Christian students and could expose the state and the taxpayers to costly legal challenges for promoting religious doctrine.
