Three private Islamic schools and parents file a federal lawsuit against Texas officials, alleging religious discrimination in the states school voucher program. The schools, located in Dallas, Collin, and Galveston counties, were denied entry despite meeting requirements. Parents are unable to use the funds for their childrens education due to the schools exclusion. Governor Greg Abbott opposes taxpayer money going to what he calls radical Islamic indoctrination, while Attorney General Ken Paxton backs the states authority to exclude schools with certain ties. Texas Democrats accuse officials of blanket exclusions against Islamic schools. The lawsuit seeks to halt the application deadline while courts review the claims, highlighting tensions over school choice and religious inclusion.
