Tuesday at the Texas State Capitol kicked off with Rep. James Talarico advocating for the largest teacher pay raise in state history.

Talarico held a press conference at 9:30 a.m. to discuss House Bill 1548, which would increase teacher pay by $15,000. It would also provide a 25% pay raise for school support staff.

KVUE's Natalie Haddad was at the Capitol and tweeted out Talarico's plan for teachers. If passed, his bill would raise the minimum teacher pay to $48,660 for zero years experience and raise the average teacher pay to $73,887.

"This moment demands bold action and that’s what our state is known for," Talarico said in a statement. "House Bill 1548 would be the biggest teacher pay raise in Texas history. In Texas, we go big or we go home. Let’s go big on teacher pay."

If teachers are so critically needed, increase the pay for teachers!!!! I'm a certified early education teacher prek-grade 5 as well as certified special education prek- grade 12 and I'm exiting the field. Teachers often work well beyond the bell to bell hours in a school day, handling tasks on personal time and paying for items out of their own pockets. Pay teachers our worth and we will return.

It should be a minimum pay of $60K. This would keep up with inflation and the cost of living, atop that teachers have to buy materials and pay for their degree debt.
