Texas Impact's Weekly Witness


Jun 9, 2022

It is summer vacation for many...but here at Texas Impact, we think it's time to focus on public education! We hope to provide some summer homework–not to prepare kids to go back to school, but to prepare you for conversations with your elected representatives and candidates going into election season. Joining us this week is one of the state’s leading experts on public school policy, David Thompson, legislative counsel for the Texas Association of School Administrators and Houston Independent School District. Later in the program, our Executive Director Bee Moorhead shares some thoughts on the faith community's policy priorities, in public education and beyond. On this week's Watchlist, Josh looks at the upcoming SCOTUS docket. Our Weekly Word sounds a bit different this episode as Scott talks to board member and Chair of the North Texas Board of Church and Society Rev. Phil Dieke, live from the North Texas Annual Conference of the UMC.
