Straight from the Texas open records act: "The people, in delegating authority do not give their pubic servants the right to decide what is good for the people to know and what is not good for them to know. The people insist on remaining informed so that they may retain control over the instruments they have created."
Most people are totally intimidated by school personnel and school boards because that is the weapon they use. The people have so much power over what goes on, but it is not exercised as a rule. Especially, if they have children in the school because they fear retaliation. All of this could be changed if people knew and exercised their rights in putting these things straight. I'll have to say there is power in number, get other taxpayers to join regardless if they have children in school..this applies to all school business. With most state's open meeting laws and open records laws there, and knowing your rights, there is much a taxpayer can do if they want to take on the fight. Thank God for Rutherford and for Jay Sekulow, ACLJ. They will help.
