  • Did Mark Kelly vote against funding the Artemis moon mission?

    NO

    This is a mischaracterization. Mark Kelly voted against the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” primarily because of its cuts to Medicaid and food assistance programs, not to defund NASA or the Artemis mission. 

    The bill included nearly $10 billion for NASA programs, with $4 billion directed to Artemis missions IV and V. Kelly has otherwise been a consistent supporter of space funding—he voted yes on a spending bill that allocated $24 billion to NASA this year.

  • Can Congress invoke the 25th amendment to transfer presidential powers to a vice president?

    NO

    Congress alone cannot invoke the 25th Amendment to transfer presidential powers to the vice president, but there is a provision that allows the transfer if the president is “unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office.”

    The 25th Amendment states that it must be the vice president and “a majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or of such other body as Congress may by law provide” that notify Congress that the president is unable to serve. The vice president then takes on the role.

    The president can reclaim his or her duties by notifying Congress in writing when he or she is again capable. The president would then return to the job — except if those who deemed him or her incapable tell Congress they disagree he can serve.

    It is then up to Congress to decide, with two-thirds vote needed in both chambers.

  • Title?

    Yes.

    State-appointed Fort Worth ISD Superintendent Peter B. Licata does not have a Texas superintendent certification.

    Licata does not hold any Texas educator certifications, according to Texas Education Agency records. He previously served for 10 months as superintendent for Broward County Public Schools in Florida in 2023. 

    Agency spokesperson Jake Kobersky said the board of managers will request a certification waiver at their first meeting. Licata plans to obtain his certification.

    The six previous leaders for Fort Worth ISD had superintendent certifications during their tenures. 

    Licata started leading FWISD March 24. He is on a 21-day interim contract until the new board of managers approves his hiring.

    A person can serve as an interim superintendent without being certified. Texas Education Agency officials can grant waivers for superintendents to hold such positions without the certificate.

    Texas Education Commissioner Mike Morath appointed Licata and the managers as a result of the district’s low academic performance.

    Editor’s note: This story was updated to include Licata’s plan to be certified.
