House members on Thursday delayed action on a hotly disputed bill that would authorize school districts to increase elementary class sizes, cut salaries and order teacher furloughs to save money. The measure by Rep. Rob Eissler, R-The Woodlands, is aimed at helping districts cope with big funding reductions next year, but teacher groups have dubbed it the "death star" because of its adverse impact on the teaching profession. School districts say they would have to cut as many as 65,000 employees statewide under a House budget approved earlier this month.
