ALT Press Conference on Thursday: Last ‘No Trust, No Bond’ Event Before Vote Speakers Include Leaders of Republican and Democratic Party, NAACP, LULAC, Labor Federation, Sylvester Turner, State Lawmakers HOUSTON—A bipartisan group of opponents of the $4.4 billion Houston school bond will hold the final “No Trust, No Bond” press event on Thursday before the vote on the largest school bond in Texas history. “We are a diverse group who may disagree over some issues, but we are united in the certainty that the state-appointed Houston school superintendent and his hand-picked school board cannot be trusted to manage this massive taxpayer-funded bond,” said Jackie Anderson, president of the Houston Federation of Teachers. The bond proposal comes as Superintendent Mike Miles is moving forward with $500 million in budget cuts for the 2024-25 school year and as he professes that the bond will not raise taxes.

ALT Excerpt from US Department of Defense manual: Booby-Traps and Other Devices in the Form of Apparently Harmless Portable Objects Specifically Designed to Explode. It is prohibited in all circumstances to use booby-traps or other devices in the form of apparently harmless portable objects that are specifically designed and constructed to contain explosive material. This prohibition relates to booby-traps manufactured to resemble items, such as watches, personal audio players, cameras, toys, and the like. This prohibition is intended to prevent the production of large quantities of dangerous objects that can be scattered around and are likely to be attractive to civilians, especially children.
