2024 TX Senate race: on Budget & Economy

Roland Gutierrez: Voted against state budget because no teacher pay raise

[On education funding]: "The fact that there is no pay raise in this budget is a huge slap in the face to every single one of our teachers. Teachers are expected to selflessly dedicate their lives to the education of our children. In Uvalde, teachers sacrificed their lives for our children. And they won't even help them keep up with inflation?" Gutierrez said in a statement. "This is the biggest surplus ever. Teachers deserve better than this bullshit from the Texas Legislature."
