"Texas House Delays Decision on School Vouchers as Time Runs Out"

TL;DR Summary
The Texas House of Representatives has failed to take action on a school vouchers bill, all but guaranteeing a fourth special legislative session. Despite Governor Greg Abbott's optimism and claims of an agreement, the House has not considered a voucher bill in committee, citing tight timing before the session ends on Tuesday. Abbott has threatened to support primary challengers to anti-voucher Republican House members if the bill fails, but he has been unable to show any Republicans flipping their stance on vouchers.
