        What are you going to do about insurance for teachers? My sister is now paying $2K a MONTH for her family. How are you okay with this!?

        As a conservative trustee in LP where TX takes $30 mil in recapture of LP taxpayer $, I hope #txlege funds it--no more unfunded mandates.

        How about putting that money toward benefits where it will actually impact teachers. 'Pay raises' never seen by T's. #noVouchers #noWEP

        A pay raise will just offset the rise in insurance costs. Not good enough. Work with TRS for better insurance and protect our retirement.
