LAREDO, Tex. (KGNS) - After Texas Gov. Greg Abbott revealed plans to introduce Turning Point USA chapters in every high school across the state, Laredo school districts are reacting.

The proposal was presented at the governor’s mansion yesterday. Turning Point USA’s high school program, called “Club America,” operates on campus and, according to the organization’s website, seeks to educate students about the principles of a free society.

KGNS reached out to both United ISD and Laredo ISD for comment.

United ISD said it had not been contacted about hosting a chapter. Laredo ISD likewise said it had not been contacted but added that district policy permits student organizations of this kind.
