Unfortunately, I don't believe you. You are saying the right things, but I don't think you have any desire to make this happen. You will continue to hinder public ed. You are not a supporter of us or our children. You and your buddy @DanPatrick need to go. #blockvote

He wants to give teacher raises....in fact, he wants to demand them....he just doesnt want to fund them...which will further the pushtochoke out public education.

Exactly wants to push the raises off on public schools that are already underfunded...school that already pay over base wouldn’t have to offer raise.

@GregAbbott_TX has been a key figure along with@DanPatrick and many in the Texas senate who have promoted years of legislation to destroy public education. YOUR WORDS DO NOT MATCH YOUR ACTIONS.pic.twitter.com/xlGiZ0inYG

Everyone notice he says there is strong support for this. He doesn’t actually say HE supports it, just that others do.

Great. What is your action plan? Which current front line educators have you met with? What local school board officials have you spoken with? How many retired teachers have you met with? How much money have you received from the voucher groups? Why the inequality ERS vs TRS?

@GregAbbott_TX, your choice of words deserves close scrutiny. You give no explicit commitment to *increased* funding for public ed. You never say who will fund teacher pay raises or how you intend to reform school finance. What, exactly, will you "get [...] done?"Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better.

What's your plan to fix the TRS Fiasco? Shouldn't teachers have it as good as you do and the rest of the state's employees that are under ERS? Your response and consideration would be taken better by voters than utter and blatant indifference...

So do something about it, Governor
@GregAbbott_TX! I’ve been waiting for#TxLege to step it up for#txed teachers, districts, and students for a couple of decades, and you never come through. Too focused on sending $$ to privatization special interest groups! - 1 more reply

@GregAbbott_TX Unfortunately, that strong support does not come from you. I know your power as Texas Governor is limited but you could do so much more. I hope you realize that “true Conservatives” have gone way too far right. - End of conversation

In light of your past actions, how about a stronger statement such as, “I support and will champion robust funding for public schools and educators.”

It should never have gotten this bad.
#txlege is letting down its teachers by underfunding and burdening cities with making up the difference thru higher prop taxes. There isn't strong support from you, Dan Patrick, et al. I, as a Republican, am very dissappointed.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Beto is my vote if Republicans don’t fix education by November.

Nothing can be done before November, which is why the ET

.....Unconstitutional in Texas, sir. What has failed students is you and Lt. Dan's scheme to starve public ed. by withholding funding while pushing privatization, to the benefit of your wealthy supporters. It's time for you to stop.....
