ALERT (LEVEL 8)
Blank Check for Undisclosed Contracts on Consent Agenda
📅 November 18, 2026
The board is set to ‘ratify’ a list of unknown contracts and agreements from the past month, bundled into a single ‘consent agenda’ vote. This prevents public scrutiny of vendors, costs, and services, effectively asking the board to approve a blank check with taxpayer money.
Response

DEMAND A RECORDED VOTE: Email the board at board@iltexas.org: ‘I demand Consent Agenda Item VI.A.1, the ratification of contracts, be pulled for separate discussion and a roll-call vote. The public must see who is being paid, for what, and how much.’

💰 Impact: Undisclosed Spending

Vague ‘Improvement Plans’ Require Scrutiny
📅 November 18, 2026
The board will vote on ‘Targeted Improvement Plans’ and ‘Local Improvement Plans’ without providing any public documents explaining what these plans contain. This lack of transparency could conceal new spending, ideological curriculum changes, or contracts with consultants.
Response

DEMAND THE DETAILS: Email the board at board@iltexas.org: ‘Regarding Item IV.A, the public deserves to see the full text of the Targeted and Local Improvement Plans before you vote. Please publish these documents immediately.’

💰 Impact: Undisclosed
