Heads up, Texas taxpayers: we’ve reviewed the upcoming CHISUM ISD agenda and found 2 items that deserve your attention before the gavel falls.
| WARNING (LEVEL 6) |
|
Undisclosed Budget Amendments
The board plans to vote on ‘budget amendments’ without providing any public details on the amounts, sources, or uses of the funds. This lack of transparency prevents taxpayers from scrutinizing how their money is being reallocated mid-year.
Response
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the Chisum ISD board. Ask: ‘Before any vote on Item 11, the public deserves to see a detailed breakdown of the proposed budget amendments. Please table this item until that information is published with the agenda.’
💰 Impact: Undisclosed Spending

| WATCH (LEVEL 5) |
|
Potential Taxpayer-Funded Lobbying Training
The agenda lists ‘school board training opportunities’ without specifying the provider or cost. These trainings are often conducted by organizations like the Texas Association of School Boards (TASB), which lobby against taxpayer interests using public funds.
Response
DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the Chisum ISD board before the meeting. Ask: ‘Regarding Item 10.B, who is providing the board training, what is the cost, and will any of it be provided by organizations that engage in lobbying, such as TASB?’
💰 Impact: Undisclosed Lobbying Influence
