Texas education chief is in Washington to discuss $830 million in potential school aid

Holloway reports:

More than $830 million in education funding is at stake today in a meeting between Texas and Washington education officials. Texas Commissioner of Education Robert Scott is meeting with U.S. Department of Education officials this afternoon in Washington, working on a way to allow Texas to get the money despite statutory conditions placed on the grant. Those conditions are at the center of a dispute between Republican Gov. Rick Perry and a leading congressional Democrat from Texas, Rep. Lloyd Doggett of Austin.
