For the Future Candidate Forums
Raise Your Hand Texas is excited to present For the Future, a series of candidate forums leading up to the 2022 general election. With events taking place across the state, we hope you’ll be able to find one near you! Every event will also be live-streamed through Facebook Live.
These events will focus exclusively on public education issues and on candidates for the Texas Legislature, which plays a huge role in shaping the requirements and resources of every public school in our state. Each one will include a set of statewide questions as well as a set of questions crafted by local stakeholders. We’re pleased that many of these events will be co-sponsored by local organizations who are also non-partisan and committed to strong public schools.
At Raise Your Hand Texas Foundation, we believe that every legislative session should be a public education session, and we want every voter to be informed on public education issues. If you want to learn more about our advocacy efforts by connecting with a regional advocacy director, you can find their contact info here.
Recordings of the forums, including any portion of these, may not be used in political advertisements.
