Panhandle area voucher supporters Sen Sparks and Rep Fairly both have ties to private schools

Senator Kevin Sparks (R) Midland voted yes on the Senate’s version of the private school voucher bill “SB 2”, which will now advance to the Texas House for consideration.

I spoke with Sparks on Tuesday after he said he was made aware of the social media posts about his position as a Board member of Midland Christian Academy (MCA) he serves alongside West Texas billionaire Tim Dunn and the potential conflict is created given his support of vouchers.
