HB 2674 prohibits the Texas Education Agency, State Board of Education, and other educational institutions from imposing new regulations on homeschool programs. This bill affirms the rights of Texas families to educate their children according to their own values, free from state mandates, curriculum controls, or bureaucratic oversight.

Parental Authority Over Education Is Fundamental
The Libertarian Party of Texas (LPTexas) holds that parents and guardians should have full authority over their children’s education (Platform § II.2.a). HB 2674 advances this principle by ensuring that families who choose to homeschool are shielded from creeping regulation and unnecessary government intrusion.

Rejecting State-Controlled Education Models
Government bureaucracies should not dictate the content, method, or delivery of education for homeschoolers. HB 2674 aligns with LPTexas’s belief in removing barriers to school choice and eliminating federal or state control over local education decisions. Educational freedom means trusting parents—not the state—with the education of their children.

Preserving Innovation and Diversity in Learning
Homeschooling fosters individualized learning and diverse educational models that are often stifled by centralized regulation. HB 2674 protects the space for families to innovate and create custom learning environments that best suit their children’s needs, free from a one-size-fits-all government approach.

Conclusion
The Libertarian Party of Texas supports HB 2674 as a necessary safeguard for educational liberty. This bill rightly limits government interference in homeschooling and respects the natural rights of parents to direct their children's learning. We urge lawmakers to pass HB 2674 and preserve the educational freedom of Texas families.
