Last week, I had the privilege to join Governor Abbott and legislative leaders as House Bill 2 — the largest single investment in Texas public education history — was signed into law at Salado Middle School, just south of House District 13.
What made it even more special for me was seeing students and families from back home — from Rosebud-Lott ISD — who traveled to be there for this historic moment. I had the chance to visit with them, shake their hands, and talk about what this bill means for their classrooms and their future. That personal connection reminded me once again why we fight so hard for public education in Texas — because at the end of the day, it’s all about the kids.
You’ve heard me say that before, but this week it became more than words — it became the law.
