Gotta be better @MLB, this is pathetic

* School spend $1.7B MORE each year on special ed services that they receive...so the $1.7B comes from gen ed $$
* THEN, schools get HALF the gen ed $$ for most special ed students--the same students being underfunded--creating another $1B gen ed deficit
This hurts ALL students!

What a day for #SB568 with

@CreightonForTX
Hear about Texas' past illegal 8.5% cap on special ed enrollment & the need to catch up by closing the $1.7B annual special ed funding gap. The new service-intensity model can help...if fully funded! #txlege #txed #HB2

Thanks @Menendez4Texas! We agree it doesn't make sense to penalize schools' gen ed funds for providing dyslexia intervention! Schools and students are hurt by losing HALF of the Basic Allotment for students receiving just 45 minutes of dyslexia therapy. #SB568 #HB2 #txlege #txed

[Texas Dyslexia Coalition @TexasDyslexia]

Thx @CreightonForTX for shining light on an issue we've been working on all session! The Disability Penalty reduces Basic Allotment funds for students served by special ed, and the reduction is NOT proportionate to the time students leave the classroom. #SB568 @HB2 #txlege

[Texas Dyslexia Coalition @TexasDyslexia]

Legislators sharing about their journey with dyslexia always pulls on our heartstrings. @HagenbuchTX - Kids across the state will hear the story you shared today...and it gives hope to kids and their parents. Thank you!! #SB568 #HB2 #txlege #txed @Toth_4_Texas @CreightonForTX

We didn't want to believe this news. I can think of two players who most embodied what Baylor aspires to be: Mike Singletary and JJ Joe. Mike was my hero. JJ was my classmate and friend. He was the most unassuming star QB you can imagine. And he was a brilliant businessman, too.

@Svigel @jt_english @garrickbailey "The church is also necessary"? The seminary cannot stand alone, but I believe the church can.

[Blake Holmes @HolmesBlake]

@jt_english @Svigel @garrickbailey Does seminary based training do all that is needed to raise up the next generation of pastors? My experience says NO!

[Blake Holmes @HolmesBlake]

@Svigel @jt_english @garrickbailey Really? Like seminaries don't suffer from blind spots and idiosyncrasies?
