Acting Texas Comptroller Kelly Hancock announced the adoption of final administrative rules governing the Texas Education Freedom Accounts (TEFA) program, the education choice initiative enacted by the Texas Legislature earlier this year in Senate Bill 2.
Rules were formally filed Wednesday, Nov. 25, with the Texas Secretary of State and will become effective 20 days from filing.
“These administrative rules, like the program itself, put Texas parents in the driver’s seat,” Hancock said. “We are executing the letter of the law as passed by the Legislature, and we’re doing it with families and students at the center of every decision. Education freedom accounts are about opening doors, expanding opportunities and giving each Texas child the chance to succeed in the environment that fits them best.”
