Texas Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee is calling on the federal government to intervene to stop the Texas Education Agency takeover of the Houston Independent School District.
She release a statement that read, in part, “As the State of Texas continues its onslaught of attacks on public school institutions, I am particularly outraged by the actions taken by the Texas Education Agency to take over the Houston Independent School District . The plight of schools and the educational future in Houston, as well as throughout the entire State of Texas, is particularly dire and in need of federal oversight and intervention.
The district sued to stop the intervention, and after years of court action, in January, the Supreme Court of Texas issued a mandate and reversed a lower court’s ruling that blocked the takeover and gave the TEA the green light to move forward under the authority currently offered by state law.
