The future of Texas is in our public schools. Securing a world-class education system is the most critical investment in our economic future.
The candidate filing deadline has passed, and platforms are being set. We are asking Texans to message their state incumbents and new state candidates to champion durable public school funding.

At this link, you can send a professional message to your state candidate in as little as 30 seconds: https://go.ryht.org/fundthefuture

We have a tremendous opportunity for Texas public schools, but we need to act fast:
https://go.ryht.org/fundthefuture (link in our bio, but we made it easy to type for you).

Now that the state candidate filing deadline has passed, candidates are actively shaping their priorities and listening closely to the people they hope to serve. Many are still determining what issues will define their campaigns. We need every new state candidate and every incumbent to hear, clearly, that Texans expect bold progress on public school funding in the upcoming session, including new, durable funding sources that are less vulnerable to cuts.

We've created an easy way to send a message to your current Texas state candidates in 30 seconds. Go here to start your message: https://go.ryht.org/fundthefuture
