Weāve seen this play before. It does not end well.
You cannot placate the far right by offering sacrifices (see Republican primaries).
It just gives them a head start on the rest of their agenda.
And in the process @UTAustin has alienated true supporters of academic freedom.

The firing of 49 UT Austin employees ā many of whom were previously reassigned from DEI positions ā was partly driven by a desire to reach conservative politicians who have lost trust in higher education, President Jay Hartzell said Monday. trib.al/i5OFCpD

The @CAMPOTexas Transportation Policy Board should diligently move forward on a plan to reduce transportation carbon emissions now, instead of wasting time trying to figure out how to get out of Federal requirements.

Today is a key deadline in knowing what will happen in the 2024 primary! If we do not have a signed contract today for the @TravisCountyTX to approve next Tuesday 12/19 this will delay election preparation until 1/9/24. We support a contract with countywide voting today!
