Texas Ed 911 Legislative Priorities for the 89th Legislative Session Create an Independent Office of Inspector General for Education - Investigate waste, fraud and abuse in Texas public schools, especially the sexual and physical assault of students by school employees
- Improve transparency and accountability for educator misconduct
- Provide authentic student safety, whistleblower protections, and strong parental notice mandates
- Authorize the IG to make referrals for criminal prosecution
Hold Public Schools and Employees Civilly Liable for Physical and Sex Abuse of Students - End two-tiered system of justice protecting opportunistic predators
- Exempt sexual and physical assault from sovereign immunity protection
- Provide parents of victims access to state courts to recover costs and legal fees for humane rehabilitation of children victimized by taxpayer-funded employees
End Taxpayer-Funded Lobbying in Texas Education - Local education agencies entrusted with setting your tax rate and levying taxes should be banned from allocating any resources to lobby against your interests on your dime
Solutions for Restoring the Dignity of Family and Children in Education End Mental Health and Ideological Overreach - Codify and enforce comprehensive parental consent
- Protect student and family data privacy
- End ideological manipulation in instructional content (SEL, CRT, etc.)
Remove Harmful Material - Support content boundaries for taxpayer-funded materials and resources in schools
- If it’s unlawful to air on the radio or cable TV, if it promotes practices banned by the Texas legislature, and if it offends trustees at school board meetings, then it doesn’t belong in school libraries or instructional material for minors. Period.
Guarantee Constitutional Due Process Protection in School Administrative Proceedings for ALL - Grievance Process
- Discipline Alternative Education Placement (DAEP)
- Special Education
Restore Educational Excellence - Device-based learning is a failed experiment. Eliminate screen time for the youngest learners until reading, writing and math fact fluency are mastered; and thereafter, limit screen time to relevant and purposeful use of technology as a tool for learning, not a substitute for teaching.
