Texas First Coalition.
We stand with public schools & businesses.

Texas students & teachers depend on the Texas First Coalition.

Texas educators are dedicated to helping students learn the concepts and skills they need to be successful — and the Texas First Coalition is committed to supporting them. To ensure a strong future for our state, we must maintain public schools of excellence in every part of Texas. After all, today’s students will be tomorrow’s teachers, doctors, engineers, entrepreneurs, scientists, tradespeople and other in-demand professionals. Yet, despite Texans demanding more support for public schools, there are still elected leaders in Austin who remain committed to dismantling our public school system without any regard to the damage they would do to our economy. By supporting the Texas First Coalition, we can fight for the future success of our schoolchildren and keep Texas vibrant for another generation.

We are pro-business, pro-public education & pro-Texas.

Texas has a reputation for being business-friendly with a long history of low taxes and economic freedom. In fact, our economy is so strong, it’s been called “The Texas Miracle.” Businesses across the country are attracted to Texas for our high quality of life, great property values, excellent public schools and pro-business policies. However, our economic security is now under a serious threat as candidates – including incumbents and their allies running for open seats – are promoting anti-business and anti-public schools policies developed by extremist political organizations. Texas First Coalition is committed to supporting pro-business policy makers who will stand up to politicians who oppose our schools and instead focus on wise policies that attract high-paying jobs, support all businesses and protect the Texas Miracle.

Let’s empower Texans with the facts, not rhetoric.

In 2018 and 2020 the Texas First Coalition stood up against fringe State Senators and Representatives who attacked public schools and teachers to score cheap political points. Because of our efforts to make education a primary focus, the Texas First Coalition sent dedicated, pro-public education legislators to Austin to fight for our students and teachers. With our help, the Texas Legislature passed HB3 – historic legislation that provides a badly needed increase in funding for many school districts. However, this is just a start for the Texas First Coalition. With your support and funding, we can make an even bigger impact in the 2022 elections – and send more pro-public education and pro-business leaders to Austin.
