We can’t lose focus on what matters – right now, Republicans in Texas are trying to gerrymander district lines to unfairly win five seats in next year’s midterm elections. This is a power grab that undermines our democracy.
Policies related to CS education have a big impact on schools’ and districts’ ability to offer CS opportunities for all students. A #WTCS24 panel will share experiences about how their schools/districts are addressing CS education policies.

The vast majority of Texans support paying our public school teachers and staff more.
We have to find a way to get this done or teachers are not going to be able to stay in the classroom, leaving our kids and the future of our state to suffer.
June UT/@Txpolproject Poll: 79% support increasing pay of public school teachers & staff.
Dems: 89% support (70% strongly)/9% oppose
Repubs: 73% support (41% strongly)/20% oppose
Ind: 70%/20%.
