WARNING (LEVEL 7)
Taxpayer-Funded Lobbying Update
📅 October 28, 2026
The board is receiving an ‘update’ from the Texas School Coalition, an organization that lobbies the state legislature on school finance issues. This is a form of taxpayer-funded lobbying, where the district uses local tax dollars to influence state policy, often advocating for higher spending and opposing taxpayer-friendly reforms.
Response

USE PUBLIC COMMENT: Sign up to speak during Item 2 (Public Comments) and ask the board about Item 3.A: ‘How much in taxpayer dollars does HPISD pay in dues to the Texas School Coalition? Will the board commit to ending its membership in this taxpayer-funded lobby group?’
