THE LAST THING WE NEED IS CORTEZ AS DISTRICT 37 REP

 

(Ed.'s Note: We came across this video from a supporter of Luis Villarreal, a candidate for Texas House of Representatives District 37 which outlines the sordid saga of his opponent Ruben Cortez's public career. Cortez, who approached a local land developer trying to find funding for a charter school while he was a member of the Texas State Board of Education (SBOE) and responsible for setting policies and standards for Texas public schools, has left a trail of self-dealing wherever he appears. 

Among SBOE's responsibilities is reviewing the commissioner's proposed award of new charter schools, with authority to veto a recommended applicant. When he did not get funding from a local land developer, he wrote a letter to the state against the Sunny Glenn's Children's Home – which provides a home for abused and neglected children. What he didn't include in it was that he once was  a "consultant" who worked for and was handsomely paid by Ruben Gallegos' International Educational Services (IES), which held contracts to house migrant minors but was shut down by the federal government over charges of massive financial irregularities. Wherever he sniffs out public money, Cortez will be there.)
