Texas GOP - hard-hearted even with more money

Texas Democratic state representative Donna Howard proposed an addendum to the state's education bill that would allow the comptroller to direct any NEW money that goes to the Rainy Day Fund, most likely from high oil prices, directly to education.

And conservative Rethuglicans tried to strip that out. Fortunately, they failed.

If anybody needed proof that the state legislature in Texas has about 50 Paul Ryans running around, this is it.
