Instead of passing idiotic laws that restrict/hinder/persecute Texas Teachers in the classroom, you reward failing districts.
Go figure.

Faith Family Academy is one of eight Texas charter school districts on track to be shut down at the end of the year after receiving an “F” rating.
Board members paid its superintendent a peak annual compensation of $560,000 in recent years.

These Charter Superintendents Are Some of the Highest Paid in Texas. Their Districts Are Among the Lowest Performing.
Three charter school districts in Texas underreported the compensation paid to their top leaders. The same three districts have also had failing or near-failing performance ratings in recent years.

Moreover, since 2025, most of Shreveport is represented by a Democratic congressman in a district that is at the center of the current SCOTUS case where a ruling is set to gut the VRA.
In any case, I'd love to read a piece interviewing Mike Johnson's constituents.
Louisiana has nearly 800,000 SNAP recipients and the food pantries in his district hub of Shreveport are already scrambling to make up the difference. I bet there will be some stories there.
