In 1975, Congress passed what would become IDEA to ensure every child with a disability has access to educational opportunity. It's time to keep that promise. Write to your Congress members & tell them to cosponsor the IDEA Full Funding Act. actionnetwork.org/letters/id… @AFTUnion

I value an honest education about race and racism in this country. Systemic racism persists and understanding how it works can help us end it sooner. @edu_post @ZinnEdProject #teachtruth

A lot of great "what about the kids?!?" energy coming from @chicagosmayor, @janicejackson.
Please hold that thought for the next time we ask for nurses, librarians, social workers, counselors, reasonable class-sizes, and sustainable community schools.
