I represent the world's largest medical center. H-1b visas ensure that we are at the forefront of innovation and care. We shouldn't shut down the greatest talent — we should recruit them to join our team. This political stunt will have a significant impact on the Texas economy.
The Kennedy Center was named after my uncle, President John F Kennedy. It was named in his honor. He was a man who was interested in the arts, interested in culture, interested in education, language, history. He brought the arts into the White House, and he and my Aunt Jackie…
The "historic investment" for Texas public schools is like if you didn't pay your rent or make mortgage payments for 6 years, then wrote a huge check and said "This is the most I've ever given you by far!" #TxLege
new state dollars for texas public schools will only start to help catch them up : bit.ly/3ZSrEnl
Update: It passed on a vote of 79-52. #TXlege
Today the Texas House is voting on a good bill by @RepWalle and @AngieChenButton! It gives TX parents more info about which licensed child care centers in their community have open spots available. #HB2271 passed on 2nd reading yesterday and is up today on 3rd reading. #TXlege
Are you keeping your promises to Texans? to the students and families of 1200 local rural, suburban & urban public school districts? to 5.5M kids? @SenCreighton @TeamBettencourt @BradBuckleyDVM @Burrows4TX @DanPatrick #txed #txlege
Where are we today? Where is the funding for 5.5 million Texas kids? Texans were told they were getting record breaking funding for education and they got 1B in vouchers that might help 100,000. Why are the rest left out? Fulfill your promise and do your duty. @DanPatrick
By next week, the Texas House will probably do the thing where they open the back doors and scream so the Texas Senate can hear them. Never gets old #txlege
Now: Texas House members are receiving copies of this memo outlining past precedent for holding a statewide vote on a particular topic. It has happened before: In 1987 and 1989. Some Republicans and Democrats now want the issue of school vouchers decided by Texans #txlege
In the decade this guy has been governor, we’ve slipped from 39th in education to 41st. Republicans have been in power in Texas for 30 years. They haven’t done jack shit to fix our public schools. Now they’re trying to destroy them with this voucher scam.
Governor @GregAbbott_TX’s goal is to put Texas on a path to be #1 in education. With school choice, we can make that happen! Watch ⬇️
Taxpayer-funded vouchers put TX taxpayers on the hook for funding the tuition of EVERY student ALREADY in private school. It's "welfare for the well off" while our neighborhood schools are shutting down.
Our press release condemning @GregAbbott_TX's outrageous assault on religious liberty by scheduling his voucher vote during the holiest season of the year for Christians and Jews. #txlege @dallasnews @HoustonChron @TexasTribune @scottbraddock @TexasObserver
🚨 URGENT: The TX House votes on school vouchers and funding on April 16th! The future of Texas public education is at stake. Oppose SB 2 (vouchers)! Support HB 2 (school funding)! 📢 Take Action NOW: txpta.org/take-action #TXLege
We've got the receipts. Texas Governor @GregAbbott_TX is playing politics with the 18th Congressional District. Nearly 800,000 Houstonians have no voice in Congress. The Governor needs to do his job. Call a June election for Texas's 18th Congressional District. Now.
Vouchers are a scam & a fraud to benefit the rich says Rev. Foster of @pastors4txkids there are 6 GOP saying no to Gov. Greg Abbott - but we need 8 more & says their names
Humbled to receive the "David" award today from @DianeRavitch & Network for Public Education for standing up against "Goliath" @GregAbbott_TX & his voucher scam. Total surprise. Deeply grateful. #txlege @GinaForAustin @TrentAshbyTX @JohnMcQueeneyTX @jamestalarico @DadePhelan
So disappointed and dismayed that our local public school district is once again in the news for this. Like we tell our kids…poor decisions have consequences. 😕
The decision from Cypress-Fairbanks ISD's board to strip chapters from books approved by Texas' Republican-controlled education board represents an escalation in how local school boards run by ideological conservatives influence what children learn. bit.ly/44eQS26
Grateful for #txed advocates standing strong against @GregAbbott_TX’s voucher scam You held off #txlege House Pub Ed vote for weeks! You fight a billionaire-backed tyrant angling for his own ambition. On the backs of Texas schoolkids. Stay strong! This fight is far from over!
Bad Bill Buckley @BradBuckleyDVM challenged by @jamestalarico that if El0n M*sk took advantage of vouchers for his 14 kids it would cost the state $1.2M youtube.com/live/BZpyyGyqt…
Rep @jamestalarico vs Public Education Chairman @BradBuckleyDVM over why Buckley held a meeting about multi-billion school finance and voucher proposals without a video live stream. By the way this is a key reason to have a robust Capitol press corps covering your government
Thank you to the TX Reps who voted NO to CSSB2. @jamestalarico @GinaForAustin @DiegoBernalTX @AlmaAllen131 @repjohnbryant @RepHaroldDutton Thank you @TrentAshbyTX for asking for changes to address lack of accountability to taxpayers. #txed #txlege
Watching the TX House public ed committee meeting. 👀 Vote NO to CSSB2 #txed #txlege @BradBuckleyDVM @leachfortexas @TrentAshbyTX @RepJamesFrank @toddahunter @HelenKerwin4TX @Schoolcraft4TX @CharlesTX127
