Heads up, Texas taxpayers: we’ve reviewed the upcoming HILLSBORO ISD agenda and found 1 items that deserve your attention before the gavel falls.

WARNING (LEVEL 6)

Requires Verification

Potential Hidden Spending on Consent Agenda

📅 October 5, 2026

The board plans to approve all of September’s checks in a single vote without public discussion. This ‘consent agenda’ item could conceal payments for taxpayer-funded lobbying groups like the Texas Association of School Boards (TASB) or other controversial consultants.

Response

Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and demand that Item 6.B, ‘Checks Payable,’ be pulled from the Consent Agenda for individual review and a recorded vote. Ask the board to publicly state if any payments are being made to the Texas Association of School Boards (TASB) or other lobbying entities.

💰 Impact: Undisclosed Lobbying Fees
