Being a researcher for vouchers is like being a doctor for cancer - it's senseless. I had a chance to respond to the Governor's state of the state address yesterday. SB2 won't raise achievement, won't offer parents clear information to make decisions, & will require parents waive their children's rights/federal protections under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act. @TexasAFT @MomsAGAbbott @RYHT @GinaForAustin @jamestalarico @DianeRavitch @pastors4txkids @AFTunion @txstateteachers @tasanet @utexascoe #txlege

It's DECEITFUL for the voucher bill's author to suggest parity in public & private schools serving students w/ disabilities. He surely knows there are many types of disabilities that differ in nature, severity, & cost. Many private schools only admit students w/ less severe disabilities & can at any time deny services while public schools must take all & provide transparency & parental rights. And that's why this bill is discriminatory - b/c tax dollars would flow to private schools who discriminate based on disability & disability type w/o recourse. @DisRightsTx @txcase @TexasAFT @txstateteachers @TheArcofTexas @MomsAGAbbott @DianeRavitch @pastors4txkids

Good morning to everyone but Minnesota, #WeBelieveinTC fans and anyone that still questions the staying power of this @astros Golden Era. Don’t question it. Don’t belittle it. And if you’re another fan base, you probably shouldn’t ask for it. #Ready2Reign🤘🏼🔥#ad @UVCPOWERSPORTS

Please support Texas public school teachers and students! Your voice matters!
Now is the time for the legislature to address the needs of the 5.5 million children in Texas public schools. Tell your lawmakers to use our historic budget surplus to provide urgently needed funding for public schools now! #txed #txlege p2a.co/Y3qUTKR

Texas already ranks near the bottom in per-student spending. Vouchers that redirect public dollars to private schools will make it even more difficult to invest in local community schools. Tell legislators to oppose vouchers for private schools! #txed #txlege

"Teachers are the only state employees who won't receive raises this session." A complete disregard/disrespect for the work educators do to impact our future. Educators deserve better. #txed #txlege We're doing what we can to provide salary increases, be we need to be able to do more to retain. texastribune.org/2023/06/02/…
