5+ min ago (427+ words) SAN ANTONIO " Whether it's text messages, knocks on their door, or even people they know, seniors are often targets for scams and financial exploitation. Councilwoman Teri Castillo (D5) wants the city to take more steps to protect older San Antonians. She submitted a policy proposal on Wednesday asking the city to provide "no soliciting" yard signs, lobbying for stronger laws and providing access to legal aid.

14+ min ago (346+ words) The Prince William County School Board is expected to vote Wednesday night whether to increase the teacher workday by 30 minutes without any adjustment to compensation. The change would impact every public school teacher in the county, extending their shifts from seven hours to seven-and-a-half hours. "Adding 30 minutes to the teacher workday without additional pay is, in effect, a pay cut," said one teacher testified at a School Board meeting the week before Thanksgiving.
