Texas teachers seek $170 million pay raise in 1968 session
Aiken pushes a $170,000,000 two year raise for Texas teachers as Senate debates wage increases. The bill would add about $17,000,000 annually to local districts and face budget fights with Governor Connally and the House. The Legislative session also advances bills on voting age, ad valorem taxes, and a parks bond program.
