Lawmakers from MALC give House Bill 2 an F
The Mexican American Legislative Caucus held a news conference yesterday criticizing the current version of House Bill 2 saying that it fails kids, fails teachers, and fails the test of leadership. Lawmakers stated that it does not provide enough money to guarantee every Texas child an exemplary public education. It also widens the equity gap between a handful of haves in 24 school districts, and every other child in Texas. It is a roadmap to disaster.
