In this episode of Freedom to Learn, Nathan Cunneen, Texas State Director for the American Federation for Children, addresses the momentum behind the push for universal education freedom in the Lone Star State. Nathan shares his personal journey from a scholarship student in Florida to a leader in the Texas school choice movement. He discusses why school choice is crucial for families, and describes powerful opposition from rural superintendents, unions, and the education establishment. With overwhelming public support and the powerful leadership of Gov. Greg Abbott, could 2025 finally be the year Texas embraces Education Savings Accounts (ESAs)? Tune in to learn why Nathan believes this time, the wave of school choice is unstoppable.
