Our Texas, Our Values - restore public school funding

Restore Funding for Public Education

Article 7 of the Texas Constitution, adopted by the people of Texas in 1876, requires the Texas Legislature to “establish and make suitable provision for the support and maintenance of an efficient system of free public schools.” We, the people of Texas, hereby petition the Texas Legislature to reinstate compliance with Article 7 of the Texas Constitution by restoring the full $5.3B that was cut from Texas public education during the 2012/2013 Biennium.

Sign our petiton to restore $5.3 billion for neighborhood schools
