Imposing an ideological litmus test for student debt relief is antithetical to American values & contrary to the statute at hand. We won’t stop fighting, in court and in Congress, until every single public service worker gets the help the law affords them www.washingtonpost.com/education/20...

Trump is destroying the economy Biden handed him

"The Trumpists are no longer at the height of glory. They control the executive branch, Congress, the Supreme Court, and social media. But in American history, the supporters of freedom have always won. They are starting to raise their heads." Raise your head. www.theatlantic.com/internationa...

“Canadians are experiencing the same politics of extortion and harassment that Trump has unleashed on Ukraine. It is, or at least it should be, a damp stain on our national conscience, and your average outraged Canadian is responding rationally.” 🙌

This Repub CR, that they claim will keep the government open, is a perfect example of why you must read bills. Inside the text, you’ll find cuts everywhere, and so much money taken from vets you wouldn’t believe it. These guys are frauds. Nice try! Hard NO! Throw it in the 🗑️

Trump orders pause on military aid to Ukraine in the wake of last week’s Oval Office clash with Zelenskyy

Whoaaaaa

Republicans' relentless attacks on public schools will devastate millions of kids with visible & invisible disabilities. Cutting funding means fewer resources, aides, & support services—leaving vulnerable students behind. Every kid deserves a fair chance 👧🏻👦🏽 Don’t Defund Public Schools

BREAKING‼️ ZERO Senate Democrats supported Republicans’ creepy attempt to insert themselves into our school locker rooms. Now more than ever it’s important for all of us to stand united in support of our trans friends.

I go to school every day with the willingness to stand between my students and an armed intruder. And this administration seeks to further weaken our resources and vilify teachers. Don’t Defund Public Schools

@jenpsaki.msnbc.com: “Brand new polling shows that a majority of Americans say the state of the union is not very strong... the cuts to the federal government are doing more harm than good… and that Trump has not paid enough attention to the country's most important problems.”

Trump’s policies tanked our stock market today and it really sucked

and there it is

go to school every day with the willingness to stand between my students and an armed intruder. And this administration seeks to further weaken our resources and vilify teachers. Don’t Defund Public Schools

Imagine dropping out of school because MAGA decided the rich needed more money. Trump & Musk are about to make major cuts to the Department of Education & student aid to fund huge tax cuts for their greedy billionaire buddies. Tell MAGA: don't defund public schools! Call Congress at 202-224-3121
