It's LIT in District F 💡(or will be).
@HoustonPlanning joined District F for a street light field trip.
Public safety is more than police. It's also about how we create safe public spaces.
If you have a street light recommendation buzz [email protected]
Stay tuned.
Earlier today, the SCOTUS declined to consider a Texas death penalty case where a juror admitted on the record before trial that he believed "non-white" races to be "the more violent races." The case, Love v. Texas, raised a claim of juror bias and was turned down by a 6-3 vote.
This is a really good video explaining why conservatives are freaking out about children learning about race in school. They’re not really. It’s about breaking the public school system so it can be privatized and run by right wing extremists and the Koch brothers.
You know, it’s easy to get frustrated and discouraged with the aggressive legislative moves against progress in schools, but I def forget how engaged and activated these younger generations are and that they’ll be fighting back.
if you have questions about the city's new contract w/ the houston police officers union (which was negotiated without public input) or new councilmember mary nan huffman's conflict of interest (she's an attorney for HPOU) i have some answers over here >>

I'm a District G resident concerned about the lack of transparency for the Houston Police Officers' Union contract. Please send it to committee and delay voting until the budget process. @marynanhuffman@MikeKnox1Hou@dwr4hou@KuboshMichael @Plummer4Hou @SallieAlcorn
Since I've been teaching, I've been working on master schedules... even in my first year of teaching. In every building I've worked in, I've been a part of the process at varying levels of responsibility... some thoughts 1/8
It should not surprise any of us that educators are leaving the profession, and we don't need a taskforce to tell us what we already know:
For two decades, the Texas GOP have treated teachers with contempt.
Dan Patrick and Greg Abbott need only look in the mirror.
