Mission Statement
Texas teachers love children, and they
love teaching those children. Our students have always been our primary focus.
Having said that, Texas teachers must
also attend to their own needs. NTTLB wants to restore the respect owed teachers by our governor and
by our legislature, secure pay increases, expand health benefits, and make retirement benefits equitable for all retirees.
We
feel that teachers are being left behind in salary and benefits as well as being left behind in the legislative process.
NTTLB is a grass-roots organization that wants to make permanent changes in how teachers
are treated by our elected officials.
Our group welcomes teachers, aides, librarians, bus drivers,
nurses, maintenance workers, secretaries, custodians, cafeteria workers, administrators, retirees...in short, ANYONE
connected with running a school. We use the term 'teacher' to include all employees who contribute to the education
and welfare of Texas students.
Furthermore, we invite parents to join our ranks.
If educators and parents unite, we can elect officials who are dedicated to educating ALL Texas students.
