First order of business for 2020 session was passage of HB1 to fulfill our promise to raise the pay of all MS teachers. https://t.co/03pUxCQNMG
I authored HB 1388 to support workforce development. It puts private-sector career coaches in K-12 schools to prepare students for today<U+2019>s careers, streamlines our WFD efforts, and aligns them with employers<U+2019> needs. Thx to @DonnieBellMS for his leadership in passing this bill.
Yesterday was a monumental day for education in MS with the Governor's signing of HB 530, The Start Act of 2022. @MSHouseOfRep has been committed to bringing starting pay for Mississippi teachers to the national & regional averages, and we are glad to see it finalized.
The hard work of our teachers does not go unnoticed. The goal of #msleg is to set our teachers up for success, ensuring that every child in MS receives a quality education, leading to a better MS for all. Teachers, thank you for what you do every single day in the classroom. https://t.co/qpmHIJuEBk
1/2 - I commend my colleagues in the MS House for seeing the work through on final passage of HB 852, the teacher pay raise bill. The Senate sent back an amended version of our original bill, which provides less money for certain teachers.
Todays full update contains info on school closures & addresses the question of how much longer? You can find it here: https://t.co/SyIk2xlHCR For help please call us at 601-359-3300 or email covid19questions@house.ms.gov. https://t.co/56hZ6QL0tc
2/2 - Additionally, we are disappointed the Senate has declined to pass our income tax bill which would have put about another $1750 back into the typical teacher’s pocket. Overall we are pleased that once again we produced a bill supporting our state’s teachers this session.
RT @grantcallen: Happy charter schools week!! I hope you will watch and retweet this video to celebrate all the great Mississippi student s<U+2026>
This would not have been possible without the steadfast leadership of House Education Chairman Richard Bennett, along with Representatives @KentMcCarty, @Repkwfelsher, & @JansenOwen.
