Watson speaks out about legislature's education failures

Sen. Kirk Watson

State Senator Kirk Watson writes passionately about the failure of the Texas Legislature and Texas leaders as a whole in the area of education and the broken promises to millions of school children who now must deal with the consequences.

“So who's on the hook for the $4 billion broken promise?” Watson writes “You are. Your kids may be packed into bigger classes, their teachers may be laid off, or your property taxes may go up. Unlike the Legislature, districts can't just push their obligations onto others. They have to be accountable.”

It’s criminal that the leadership of this state simply doesn’t give a damn about the future of children living in Texas.
