Brownsville ISD Faces Critics – Insurance Decision Sparks Outrage

“………………………..you cancel a healthcare contract with one of the largest health care group insurance providers and award it to an unknown company from Oklahoma, with few staff, only one nurse and no track record.”

A new website, www.carebrownsville.org calls for the ouster of four of the Brownsville Independent School District’s school board members. Concern is expressed on the district’s recent decision to change health insurance providers. How this plays out will be more than interesting.

A $40,000 funded compaign is rumored to be spent towards billboard advertising and television spots to be aired 200 times between today and Monday, just in time for next Tuesday’s scheduled school board meeting.
