*NTTLB Mission Statement: “…..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.....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….. 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.”
