Link to Do's and Don'ts of a Bond Election
It is illegal for an employee to advocate for or against the bond election during working hours or using school resources.
· Penalties for violating this provision go up to a $4,000 fine and a year in jail.
· The Texas Ethics Commission views the prohibition on using school resources for political advertising broadly. It includes direct and indirect costs. For example, political advertising should not be done using District email accounts, official school Facebook and Twitter pages, school computers, and school facilities. Speeches given at school events should be purely factual and avoid telling people to vote a particular way. Even implying that someone should vote a particular way (“Take a stand for our kids’ future.”) could be a violation of this provision.
· Information provided by school staff during working hours and/or using school resources must be purely factual.
