[QUOTE="TheOnlyMe, post: 262408, member: 4515"] [SIZE=4][B]Just nine more Representatives needed[/B][/SIZE] The House Committee on Public Education will not hear HB 130 this week. Be sure to stay tuned to TECEC e-alerts for upcoming information on this important hearing. In the meantime, we invite you to help secure more co-authors for HB 130, which supports high-quality full-day pre-k through community-based partnerships. As you may know already, 67 members of the Texas House of Representatives have already signed on in support of this bill. If early education advocates can convince just 9 more Representatives to sign on to HB 130, we could have a House majority in support of the bill before it even comes to the floor for a vote! Our advocates have already been extremely successful. This is an opportunity to be proactive and clear a path for HB 130 to pass the House safely. Please review the short letter below and send it off to members of the Texas House who have not yet decided to sponsor HB 130. We encouraged you to add your own voice to the letter before sending. Subject: Please Co Author HB 130 Dear [ Decision Maker ], (Edit Letter Below) As a supporter of early childhood education in Texas, I am asking you to co-author Representative Diane Patrick's HB 130, relating to an enhanced quality full-day prekindergarten program provided by public school districts in conjunction with community providers. Investing in early childhood education is one of the best investments Texas can make. According to the Bush School of Government & Public Service at Texas A&M University, every $1.00 we invest in high-quality early education yields at least a $3.50 return on investment for Texas communities. Financial benefits are realized through increased high-school graduation rates, lower grade retention rates, less special education referrals, and decreased involvement with the criminal justice system for those that experience high-quality early childhood education. In recognition of the amazing benefits that high-quality early education provides for individuals and communities, 67 of your colleagues in the Texas House have joined in support of HB 130 as a joint or co-author. Please join these members today by adding your name to the growing list of co-authors on this critical legislation. Thank you for your service to Texas and for your consideration of this important request. Sincerely, {Your Name} [/QUOTE]
