State Board of Education
Posted May 14th, 2010 by JulieIt is extremely important that conservatives and patriots from around the state contact the Texas State Board of Education to voice support for the revisions that the SBOE made earlier this year to the Texas social studies textbook standards. Right now, the SBOE is hearing from groups like:
- League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC)
- NAACP
- Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund (MALDEF)
- Texas Families of Incarcerated Youth, Sikh Coalition
- U.T. Austin Department of History
- Carrizo-Comecrudo Tribe of Texas
- Hindu-American Foundation
- Coalition for Educational Reform
- Texas Holocaust and Genocide Commission
- and many others
They have been asked to include more minorities, more liberal groups, less about our Christian heritage, less about limited government, more about race and gender, and less about free markets and gun rights.
You can contact the SBOE by sending them an email at sboesupport@tea.state.tx.us and let them know that you support the revisions that have been made. And if you can, go to Austin on May 19 to lobby for the conservative changes. The final vote is May 21.
