Hispanic Texas land commissioner candidate vows to defund schools teaching CRT
Fox News
Victor Avila, a first-generation Mexican-American immigrant, former ICE agent, and candidate for Texas land commissioner, announced that, if elected, he will withhold funding from any educational institution in Texas that teaches critical race theory (CRT).
"Allocating any funding into this program enables the radical left to promote their political agenda in our schools," Avila added. "As Texas Land Commissioner, I will continue to fight for every family and protect our children by stopping all funding towards CRT."
The position of Texas land commissioner involves, among many other things, the oversight of billions of dollars in school funding.
