“The state expanded the voucher program in 2023, wiping out family income requirements, and voucher use has jumped 67% since then. Because schools are funded on a per-pupil basis, declining enrollment means a drop in state money.”

We have students who have gone through Parkland who are now experiencing the FSU shooting. Shameful that gun violence has become so common in our country that young Americans have multiple experiences with it.

I am heartbroken to watch reports of a shooting at FSU. My thoughts are with the students, faculty, staff, first responders, and the entire Tallahassee community. We are safe and at the State Capitol, waiting for verified updates. Please continue to listen to local guidance.

Another harassing letter from Governor Ron DeSantis under the banner “DOGE” to local governments. Wild how they are demanding this information while also under investigation by the Florida House for illegal operations of Hope Florida!

Don't do this. Don't sanewash the obvious incompetence/incoherence of Trump's actions with purely speculative reporting on what might happen if his provably incompetent aides magically turned competent and Trump himself magically let them negotiate deals without sabotaging each of them for funsies.

New, from me: Marco Rubio used to boast that he was banned from China, calling it a totalitarian state. Now he combines a) new surveillance capabilities to monitor and punish international students, with b) little accountability or due process. 🧵 donmoynihan.substack.com/p/the-attack...

Living rent free in the Governor’s head is fun! God forbid Democrats and Republicans agree that we should restore transparency to University Presidential searches and allow merit to be the decider, not political preference.

While there were big #HandsOff protests around Florida today, US Rep. Byron Donalds decided to target our smaller #TeslaTakedown protest in Kissimmee. He brought that MAGA bad rapper w/ even worse face tattoos and some incel YouTuber. Kissimmee is nowhere near Byron’s district. This is pathetic.

🟠 SB 412 needs YOUR voice. Wheelchair users in FL can be stranded for weeks waiting on repairs—because manufacturers restrict who can fix their devices. That’s wrong. That’s what the #RightToRepair bill (SB 412 / HB 311) is here to fix. @annaforflorida.bsky.social 🧵👇
