DALLAS — Every Texas school would have an armed officer and would-be teachers would receive extra support under legislation prioritized by House Speaker Dade Phelan.
Phelan highlighted bills addressing campus safety and strengthening the teacher pipeline late Wednesday. Lawmakers pledged to focus on school security this legislative session, the first to come after 19 children and two teachers were killed in Uvalde.
The Robb Elementary massacre will loom large over proceedings.
