1998 Steve Lane And Wes Curtis Confront Travis County Commissioners On Heavy Handed Truancy Program [p0vB6vY4yIQ]

Voluntary Participation, Free Market Education and Closing Remarks

The session concludes with a challenge to make the ASAP program 100% voluntary, allowing it to stand on its own merits through parental "buy-in" rather than mandatory enforcement. Advocates for this change argue that a free-market approach would prove the program's value if parents truly found the law enforcement visits helpful. The court takes the suggestion for serious consideration before adjourning the topic.
