We anticipate a private school voucher vote on the floor of the Texas House 
or the Texas Senate in the next few days.  We are on HIGH ALERT.

Multi-million dollar private school voucher funder Dr. James Leininger is in 
Austin today putting pressure on legislators.  Rep. Fred Brown’s position on 
vouchers may have changed to being in support of vouchers.  We need your 
help!

Please call and urge your neighbors and friends who live in Bryan and 
College Station to call the Capitol office of state Rep. Fred Brown at 
512-463-0698 RIGHT NOW!  Please tell Rep. Brown’s staff:

-- Thank you for your past strong support for public schools and opposition 
to private school vouchers.

-- Please continue to stay strong in opposing vouchers, and the folks back 
home will support you. Texas taxpayers cannot afford to pay for private 
school vouchers.

Rep. Fred Brown could cast the tie-breaking vote on vouchers, so it is very 
important that he hearm      from his constituents in Bryan and College 
Station! Calls should be made Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Please forward 
this message on to others.

Please e-mail heather at tfn.org after you make your call so we can track our 
impact.
