Don't mess with Texas teachers!

A message from State Rep. Thierry

Yesterday, I hosted a chartered bus of dedicated educators representing Texas Retired Teachers Association and it was an honor to be the keynote speaker for the rally on the south steps of the Capitol! I shared my commitment to fighting this session to fully fund the TRS Care Pension plans and prevent retired teachers’ healthcare premiums from tripling in cost.

Our teachers are the backbone of our communities. As a daughter of a former educator, and a proud product of the public school system, this issue is not political for me–it’s personal! Let’s continue to fight together to ensure that our Texas teachers have access to affordable healthcare.

So does this count as an argument against the school choice bill?

Or does this just show the difficulties of healthcare compounded by the ACA?
