Powerful start to the school year with @chrisemdin! All kids should know they have: The right to be here. The right to feel. The right to act. The right to love and be loved. The right to speak truth to power. The right to see. The right to know. #AISDlevelup23

Texas Republicans are trying to force public schools to display the Ten Commandments in every classroom. I told the bill author: “This bill is not only un-constitutional and un-American, it’s deeply un-Christian.” #txlege

When I was a public school teacher, I struggled to make ends meet. 40% of Texas teachers work a second job. Thousands are leaving the profession to find work that can pay the bills. Today I’m introducing legislation to give every teacher in Texas a $15,000 pay raise. #txlege

Love this team! What a great way to kick off this fun week!
Nothing kicks off book fair like dressing up as book characters @GullettElem. Our volunteers did a great job decorating and we will share more later, but we found a corner dedicated to Charlotte’s Web!
