        Texas government....years late and many dollars short. This is why local school taxes are so high because Texas state government does not adequately fund public education for effective results.

        Children with special needs should have a shot at life, too - as should the children in Texas' inadequate foster system. You have failed them.

        Yeah right. The money isn't to help only white kids. The image is misleading. Be honest. Why do advertisements make it look like only whites get special ed? Where is the diversity in this picture? Where's the truth?

        As a Texas public school teacher, your campaign has my undivided attention. You talk about lowering property taxes and fixing the education system of Texas. I respectfully request information about how you will help our schools if you lower the property taxes that fund them.

        So, this would have continued to be ignored if the Chronicle article hadn't exposed this? Why are you more worried about bathrooms when we have bigger problems with teacher insurance, teacher retirement and special needs?

        At some point @GregAbbott_TX you are going to have to address the PubEd insurance debacle. Current teachers are struggling and retirees can't afford the pathetic benefits offered. State employees get great benefits. If you don't care about PubEd teachers, just say so!

        I’m proud to hear this but don’t believe I should be paying for it in school taxes since I’m 70 and living or trying to live on a fixed income. My property taxes in Bexar County are already over the top.
