CONVERSE (KTSA NEWS)- Teachers and staff in the Judson Independent School District won’t be getting a pay raise, but they will get some extra money this year. The board of trustees has approved a $248.4 million budget, which includes $1.8 million for a retention incentive for employees.

“A retention incentive is a one-time payout to employees to show our appreciation for the hard work they’ve been displaying over the past year,” said Steve Linscomb, Director of Communications for JISD.

A hiring freeze continues on vacant positions, primarily non-teaching jobs, as district officials try to save as many positions as possible.

“We were able to cut the budget and still save jobs,” said Linscomb.

The budget includes a $9.5 million shortfall, which Linscomb says will be addressed through the district’s fund balance or savings account and other funding sources.

Cuellar: Open minded on border funding, but firmly against wall

Only one Texas Democrat has been tasked with helping develop a deal to secure the border.

SAN ANTONIO (Texas News Radio) — Only one Texas Democrat has been tasked with helping develop a deal to secure the border.

That would be Laredo Rep. Henry Cuellar.

The Democrat stated on CNN Wednesday he would have an open mind during negotiations on most topics, except for one: border wall funding.

Cuellar repeated a common stance held by many Washington politicians that the wall is a medieval era solution to the current issues along the border.

The commission — which includes 17 members of Congress, including Fort Worth Rep. Kay Granger, a Republican — has until February 15th to come to a deal. If it fails, it risks the federal government slipping into another shutdown.

The president tweeted Wednesday if there is no discussion on a wall or physical barrier, the committee will be wasting its time.

The burger chain decided to thank Alcoreza for his fandom and decked out his room with the finest selections from the Whataburger design studio.

Whataburger says many of the items featured are available to purchase at the Whataburger online store, though some items were custom designed for this project.
