Texas Public Policy Foundation

Heads up, taxpayers and parents: We’ve audited the upcoming REG 1 EDUCATION SERVICE CENTER agenda. There are 2 items targeting parental consent and taxpayer funds that need your immediate attention before the gavel falls.

ALERT (LEVEL 4)

Requires Verification

Potential for ESG Criteria in Investment Policy Update

📅 Scheduled Action

The board is voting on an update to its investment policy, CBF (Local). Without the text of the changes, taxpayers cannot verify if this update introduces ‘Environmental, Social, and Governance’ (ESG) criteria, which prioritizes political agendas over the best financial return.

Response

INVESTIGATE: The agenda does not include the text for the proposed update to Policy CBF (Local). Contact the Region 1 ESC Board and ask that the full text of the proposed changes for Item 8.A be made public before the vote.

💰 Impact: Politicized Investments

ALERT (LEVEL 4)

Investment Policy Review Lacks Public Detail

📅 Scheduled Action

The board is passing a resolution to review its public funds investment policy. This is a key moment where political factors like ESG can be inserted, but the resolution text is not public, preventing taxpayer oversight.

Response

DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the Region 1 ESC Board and ask for the text of the resolution for Item 8.B. Urge them to affirm on the record that the investment policy review will not introduce ESG factors and that fiduciary duty remains the sole criterion.

💰 Impact: Lower Financial Returns
