Los Angeles school worker shares frustration over parents having to leave their children’s graduation ceremony because ICE raided an elementary school’s graduation today

Just a proud big sister over here!! My forever bestie, now a Doctor, is changing the world for the better by researching equitable teaching practices for our most vulnerable students. I am immensely proud and honored to know her, love her, be loved by her, and to learn and grow with her #education

First they locked children in cages, now they want to leave children all alone in perhaps the most vulnerable and consequential moments of their lives. Nope. Not on our watch. #NoChildAlone

Trump Republicans hate the Department of Ed for the same reasons they hate education. They view education as a waste of funds since it exposes their fraud and prevents their abuse of American minds through their outlets of disinformation. Trump Republicans want a country of believers, not thinkers.

Al Green understood the assignment

Linda McMahon’s hearing confirmed what we feared—she won’t stand up for students. She refused to protect public schools, backed private school vouchers, and ignored the needs of vulnerable students. Our students deserve better.

Today, Linda McMahon: ❌ Pledged to dismantle the U.S. Dept. of Education, and ❌ Promised to support vouchers, stripping resources from 90% of U.S. students.   Our students deserve an education secretary who will fight for them, not gut public schools to pay for tax cuts for billionaires.

The "peace candidate" Trump wants to force 2 million Palestinians from their homes, give another $1 billion in weapons to Netanyahu, and enact a "plan" to turn the decimated Gaza strip into a billionaires' Riviera. If this is his "peace" policy, I'd hate to see his war policy.

Vouchers have been a catastrophic failure everywhere they have been tried.

Mr. President: Instead of stealing Greenland from Denmark, I have a better idea.   In Denmark, everyone is guaranteed health care, college education is free, parents receive 1-year of paid paternity leave & workers don’t make less than $22 an hour.  Let's steal those ideas.

The new administration got its grubby paws on the department of education. And it’s disgusting. (1/2)
