Parents, teachers rally in Austin against school funding cuts

AUSTIN — Thousands of parents, teachers and public school supporters rallied at the Capitol on Saturday to deliver a stern warning to the Legislature: Don’t even think about cutting education funding as severely as some lawmakers want to balance the state budget.
Taking aim at preliminary funding proposals that would slash $5 billion a year from public education, educators and PTA members from North Texas and across the state protested that the unprecedented cuts would undermine years of progress in Texas schools.
