Steve Toth quote tweet: "Taxpayers have increased Pub Ed funding 57% since 2015 while School boards have only increased teacher pay 7%." Gov. Abbott tweet: "Texas fully funds our public schools. I've provided more funding for public education and teacher pay raises than any other Texas Governor in state history. Public education funding is at an all-time high of $85 BILLION per year. That's a 57% increase since 2015."
