The news of Texas covered today includes:Our Lone Star story of the day: From the Stench Local Government File come stories about local school district irresponsibility in spending and deception when it comes to bond debt issues. The two main stories I mostly work from are: Austin ISD spent $100M in bond money on schools set to close – done more often than you'd think. If upgrades are not spread around all campuses and neighborhoods, people organize to oppose debt election and often some of those people are in areas that insiders already know will close in a few years. McAllen ISD considers $335 million bond for school upgrades, says tax rate would stay the same – remember, a tax rate staying the same is almost a guarantee of annual tax increases when figuring appraisal creep. It also ignores that without issuing the new 30-year debt, taxes could go down significantly.

The amendment to make Human Sexuality instruction Opt-In means that schools had to ask ALL parents permission before they could teach ANY child sex education. Before this law, parents were the ones who had to “Opt-Out” their kids from human sexuality instruction. We know that school districts like Austin ISD and surrounding areas have since implemented a permission slip system to teach Sex-Ed. But we also know that many school districts complained about this process and cannot wait to see the Opt-In law expire! This was a crucial win for parents and children of Texas, because it offers more control to the parents. Sex-ed opt-in expires August 1, 2024.
