Harris County Democratic, Republican leaders oppose HISD's $4.4B school bond

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

58% : Ruth Kravetz, co-founder of Community Voices for Public Education, said she supports funding for public education, but she wrote and presented the resolution at the committee's meeting because she believes Miles and the Texas Education Agency's intervention into the district is harming students, parents and teachers.
37% : "While the Harris County Democratic Party supports public education and acknowledges the need for full funding, including bonds, it opposes the HISD $4.4 billion bonds, Proposition A and B, due to Superintendent Mike Miles' fiscal mismanagement, inadequate oversight and the detrimental impact on students and public education since the takeover," the resolution said.
