The State Board of Education violated state open meetings rules when it voted to support Gov. Rick Perry in spurning federal tax dollars for education and failed to notify the public by putting the resolution on its January agenda.
That's according to the Quorum Report, which is challenging what it says were two separate violations of the Texas Open Meetings Act. In addition to the January violation, the Quorum Report takes issue with the board's passage of a memorial resolution for a former board member that was not included on a recently published agenda.
Perry in January said Texas would not compete for the Race to the Top stimulus funds because of the onerous federal requirements that would go with the money.
