Contact your representatives in Austin today
Ed Martin, in an e-mail to the Texas Democrats list, reminds us:
Your legislative Democratic leaders urge you to contact our Democratic legislators and remind them that it is essential that all Democrats be present and prepared to vote against the HB2/HB3 tax shift plans that would raise taxes on 90% of all Texans without dedicating a single penny of our higher tax bills to improving our children's schools.Amid all sorts of rumors about deals, filibusters, and vote counts, one thing is certain: the plans being "negotiated" behind closed doors by the Governor and Republican legislative "leaders" fail our school children, teachers, and most Texas taxpayers miserably.
The vote on the Republican plan to tax our families will be close - and with every Democrat present and voting NO, we have an opportunity to defeat these bills and insist that we do better for all Texans.
