I'd assume that the folks who fired her are fucked beyond belief in this case. As far as I know they can't fire a tenured/contracted teacher without shit loads of infractions. Hopefully she now retires with millions in the bank for being fucked by The System. Of course, Texas residents will pay for that ruling but hopefully they have a means of removing the folks who cost them this slap in the face.In Texas tenured teachers are on a contract.
It's only free speech when the left agrees with you.
Since when does language proficiency have anything to do with race?In my understanding, in an at will state they are free from litigation if they do NOT give a reason.
If they simply say to her, your services are no longer needed please do not report to work anymore past X date. Then you have met 'at will' requirements
When you get into reasoning WHY the employment agreement is terminated is when you get into trouble, now it is no longer an at will situation but it is a for cause situation.
If she is a teacher with a contract then it gets far more complicated. I am sure there is a clause that she will not be a racist or make racists statements or something very subjective and loose like that. Any violation voids the contact. Some fruit loop at the school board is going to claim racist even though it isnt't
I know someone that got fired for being racist. She got a job as a teachers assistant, then posted on her private blog (not facebook or anything like that) that people that work the local McDonalds drive through need to learn how to speak English (she was tired of her order getting screwed up every time)
Someone at the school that hired her saw this comment on the blog and terminated her contract as she violated their no racist speech policy. AS I said subjective. She was too stupid and poor to attempt to fight it so she moved on and was just happy it didn't make the local paper/press so she could find employment elsewhere.

Pretty much 100% of elementary through HS public school teachers are unionized. While their union is leftist to its rotten core, its members are protected by the contract their union and the school districts signed.Is she an At Will Employee? If so, she can be fired for any or no reason. I was under the impression that tenured teachers were under a contract but I'm not certain.
If she can get an attorney to take the case she may have the last laugh which is always my favorite.
VooDoo
Respectfully that's not correct. Legislated laws ( and interpretations, appeals along with innumerable definitions, conditions, mitigating factors, special circumstances, levels of sovereignty, jurisdictions, terms and conditions and even contract language) is what applies here.
To your point however, if this is the reason for her termination she does appear to have the stronger legal argument.
Negative Ghostrider, if it were that cut and dried they couldn't have made it past the legal review in the first place and nothing in law is that cut and dried.
First (according to various media sources so we must question the accuracy of the information)
she wasn't fired for "political speech" ( which is a vague, nebulous and undefinable term)- she was fired for something between creating a "hostile learning environment" ( whatever that means but it was in one article) to discriminating against certain students ( trying to scream racism but not actually saying so)- no one I have seen yet as shown the exact violation she is alleged to have committed.
I would love to see the actual language of her termination because I'm curious myself.
The fact ( according to an article) that an independent examiner did not support her termination is very telling ( and not surprising to me in the least)
It cannot be a "civil rights violation" unless it directly violates a codified right and that violation must be in accordance with whatever restrictions are codified in the specific law that is allegedly violated. That has not yet been established ( or refuted) by any evidence.
I also assure you that in certain circumstances a legal contract ( where people can negotiate limits to certain "rights" for remuneration and/or other compensation) and/or a collective bargaining agreement can and will trump the written law so given her employment that must be a prime consideration while evaluating this case.
Hope that helps
I read those tweets and wonder exactly what they could be twisted as the basis of? ( go read them yourself)
She asked Trump for a contact point to have illegals removed in her school system.
Might not be "nice" but certainly not racist ( she never identified a particular group) and doesn't in any way fly in the face of SCOTUS 1982 of Plyler.
Personally I think you're a fuckin idiot if you have a public social media profile under your real name/info, while employed by someone other than yourself, and you like to frequently comment/post online, especially on decisive issues. Not saying it is right, but its life in 2019. You see it all the time with people being let go by employers because of a tweet, IG post, FB share, etc. Then again, I also hate social media so I might be biased here lol.
If the teacher belongs to a union, she has rights, even "At Will" emplyee's, can't be wrongfully fired. A good lawyer could possibly fix this. Mac?Texas is an "At Will" State but this does not indemnify you against wrongful termination...
There are still rules that an employer is bound by
