Amend CSSB 1 in Article III of the bill following the 
appropriations to the Texas Education Agency by adding the 
following appropriately numbered rider:
	____.  Prohibition on Vouchers.  It is the intent of the 
Legislature that none of the funds appropriated above may be spent 
to pay for a public education voucher program or a public education 
voucher pilot program if the program uses federal funds or state tax 
dollars to pay tuition for children in any grades between grade 1 
through grade 12 to attend a private school.  This prohibition 
includes the paying of any federal funds or state tax dollars, 
either directly or indirectly, for grants or programs for children 
to attend private schools or private educational programs that 
substitutes for a regular education program provided by a school 
district or open-enrollment charter school.
