Did you know that Iowa's special education system is a national standout? We’re the third lowest in special education state complaints in the nation! Shout out to our AEA leadership and staff, the unsung heroes ensuring that special education services meet statutory compliance!

Did you know that US overseas votes are often the margin of victory in close elections. There are over 6 million #Americansabroad, but only 9% vote, usually because they don’t know they can. Help us spread the word! 🇺🇸🌍 #votefromabroad #demsabroad

MAGA House Republicans' wish list would cut crucial programs to pay for handouts for the ultra-wealthy.
Over 1 million seniors could lose services like Meals on Wheels.
For some folks it's their only healthy meal each day.
I stand with our seniors.

We have a squirrel this spring that is in our front yard a lot- they have white fur on its ears making it easy to spot them. We are considering names…

In my ongoing quest for reducing our #grocery $$ ..I discovered that @saveonfoods price matches even on curbside pickup items! Saved $15 on $80 this shop … nice to find all 3 in one place - quality, sales prices and convenience!

I am not sure why #duolingo thinks clowns are one of those occupations I need to know in Unit 1. It comes up much more frequently than I would have imagined- are circuses a big part of Italian daily life? 🧐

Republicans will force a 10 year old to carry her rapist’s baby to term, let a 6 year old carry a gun, permit a 12 year old to work an 8 hour shift in a meat packing plant and allow a grown man to marry a 14 year old with a Judge’s consent, all while telling us that the reason they’re banning drag queens, gender affirming care and books about Rosa Parks is because they want to ‘protect our kids.’
Bullshit.

Doing a #lepoutineweek #datenight and we are happy to give our orders & a #hattip to @TavernUnited and @smittys on south pembina for doing take-out.
Pretty “brazen” of some places to let me order fries as take-out but Require dine-in just to have the poutine. 🙄 hard pass.
