Is Texas being overrun by muslims? How many are islamist, jihadist who hate America?

The first lawsuit was filed by a Muslim father because no Islamic schools were approved new voucher program. Looks like he has a good case because the school he sends his kids to should qualify.

Does the Islamic schools accept students of all religions? I know for certain that catholic schools do. I went to school with many students who were not Catholics and even a few who were not Christians (Hindu). The non Catholics were exempt from the religion course, although they did need to take Latin.

Our kids' Christian school decided not to accept vouchers. They don't want any risk of the government involving themselves in our school operations, who we admit, what we teach, etc.
But I'm off topic. Did any Muslim schools meet the criteria?

I don't disagree with you but what do you suppose we do to rectify this?

Wise decision.
And if we're going to have a country built on freedom of religion, then by definition that means you won't be able to exclude Muslim, satanic, Hindu, Buddhist, etc schools. Why Texas didn't see this coming is baffling.

What we can't - ban Islam.
What we can if we have the balls - Close the border to any Islamic country on the planet.

The voucher program ended up being a joke and a campaign commercial for Abbott and Patrick.
To make matters worse to get it to pass they gave I think it was 14 billion to teacher unions as the compromise.
All to claim Texas has school vouchers - when it's a joke lottery 1% system.

I'm surprised that people are surprised. What's good for the goose is good for the gander. Are you also going to be surprised when the Five Pillars of Islam is displayed next to the Ten Commandments in schools?

Jokes on them. I have at least 10 Muslim schools opening soon that will be getting vouchers.

My general take is that the voucher program should be tied directly to your property tax roll. You get taxed 2k per year by the school district? Here is your 2k voucher.
No application process. No 500% poverty test, no disability tiers. Don't even have to get into this muslim vs christian school fight.
Even throw a bone to apartments. Whats the tax roll of the whole apartment divided by the units. Its not paid directly by the renter but it is still paid by them.
Its not equal, but its fair.
