The Texas House will debate an amendment today that could impact legislation that many Republicans ran in favor of during election season. According to the Texas Tribune, the amendment would ban the use of state dollars to fund private education for Texas students. In other words, no school vouchers.

An amendment filed by state Rep. Abel Herrero, D-Corpus Christi, would ban the use of state dollars to fund private education for students in elementary through high schools, including through so-called tax credit scholarships.

If passed, the measure — one of more than 350 budget amendments covering topics from border security to abortion up for House consideration — would deliver a blow to Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick.
