Oil Refineries may win. Texas schools could lose.

Texas Commission on Environmental Quality may give oil refineries giant tax refunds. Yes, and half of that tax refund money would come from Texas Schools. It sounds unbelievable but it could happen. If the tax refunds are granted, the total could be as much as 135 million dollars!!!!

If a three-member commission appointed by Gov. Rick Perry grants the refunds, nearly half the money would be taken from schools.

Disgusting....

Texas is now ranked 47 in the US for public education. Forty-seven! This is time for everybody to contact their district Senators and Representatives and ask them to stop the madness. The rest of the country is finding out the truth about Perry and his record with the public education system. It's Texans that all need to wake up and see the disservice that he has done to a generation children here so he can cater to his buddies in oil and gas.

And when you do contact those who are to represent you, ask them why we live in one of the wealthiest incomeb per capita states, but our public education rivals Mississippi--one of the poorest states.

That's because Rick Perry cares only about one thing....Rick Perry.

And there are 12 more bastard companies that are ready to ask for the same tax credit if the first one is granted.
