Tell State Leaders "The Eyes of Texas Are Upon You!"
Save Texas Schools needs YOU on Saturday, May 21, when we'll take our message straight to legislators INSIDE THE TEXAS CAPITOL. Volunteers will work in teams to pack the House gallery, keep a vigil outside the House Chamber doors, launch a barrage of in-person visits to members' offices, and jam phone lines with calls. We're giving state leaders one last warning- we're watching, we'll remember and we VOTE!
With the legislative session nearing its final days, many Texas legislators continue their vicious assault on public education. As currently drafted, House Bill 1 would inflict crippling cuts on schools statewide, putting Texas in or near last place nationally in funding for the education. The Senate version is not much better. Unbelievably, our leaders STILL refuse to use the state's Rainy Day Fund to provide even modest relief for Texas students. Time is running out!
We need a HUGE turnout to get this message through, so please bring your friends, family, neighbors, co-workers, faith communities and more! Volunteers will work in two shifts from 10 am to 1 pm or 1 to 4 pm. Go to http://savetxschools.com/
For those who can't come to Austin, we need you to sign up to make calls on May 21. Go to http://savetxschools.com/
Texas can and must do better by its kids. You have made a difference! Come out on Saturday and let them know, "The Eyes of Texas Are Upon You!"
