Lakeville teachers have been working without a contract all year.
Educators across Minnesota are coming together to demand better contracts for the learning conditions of our students and working conditions for ourselves. We are ALL worth more! #mnleg #edmnvotes mprnews.org/story/2023/11/21…

I heard La'Shea share her story several years ago and it has always stayed with me. Prohibiting domestic abusers from purchasing guns saves lives.
La’Shea Cretain lives with five bullets inside her body due to an ex-boyfriend who shot her in 1996. Today, she called on #SCOTUS to reverse a dangerous Fifth Circuit Court decision that allows abusers under domestic violence restraining orders to possess firearms. @lcretain40

Not many people know this, but it snowed once before on Halloween in Minnesota.

We deserve the freedom to live without the threat of gun violence in our communities. Thank you @RepAngieCraig.
Folks in my district deeply value freedom – including the 2nd Amendment.   But they also value the freedom to go to a bowling alley, a movie theater, a place of worship or grocery store and be safe.   We need weapons of war off our streets.

No other peer nation tolerates a level of gun violence anywhere near what we experience. We don't have to live like this and we certainly should not be dying like this. Text ACT to 644-33 to join millions of Americans working to #EndGunViolence.

This is a policy choice.
BREAKING: At least 22 people have been killed and more than 50 have been wounded in a mass shooting at multiple locations in Lewiston, Maine. Details are still developing but media outlets are reporting that the scene is still active. Our hearts are with the Lewiston community and all those impacted by yet another horrific act of mass gun violence in America. bit.ly/3QeECGw

Minnesota Ranks in the Top 10 Safest States in the Nation according to WalletHub! Public Safety was a big focus of mine this session, including the $300 million in direct funding to our local communities for public safety we added to our Tax bill! #mnleg bringmethenews.com/minnesota…

It’s a great day to ban guns from the Minnesota State Capitol! #MNLeg
A man illegally brought a handgun into the Wisconsin Capitol, demanding to see the governor. Then he posted bail and returned with an assault rifle. apnews.com/article/wisconsin…

When pay doesn't even come close to keeping up with inflation, the teacher shortage is going to get much worse.
Maybe teacher unions could learn something from the UAW. The United Auto Workers are currently demanding a 40% raise while my teacher union was ecstatic to receive a 2% raise. 😞

Lakeville friends, do you know an adult who wants to learn or improve their English, work on career skills, or to work towards their GED? Please share this information about our adult basic education program. isd194.org/ce/abe

Okay, let's look at the law! EVERY adult in a school district is prohibited from impairing a child's ability to breathe, communicate distress, or put weight on their head, neck, throat, lungs etc UNLESS it's to prevent bodily harm or death to that student or another. AND
During a GOP press conference criticizing a school resource officer bill, a reporter asks State Sen. Zach Duckworth (R-Lakeville) multiple times if he can cite specifically what's wrong with the bill. He cannot answer the question and steps away from the podium.

It must be exhausting to live with this much paranoia

Actual State Representative Pam Altendorf thinks there's a conspiracy afoot because... the Target in Red Wing, Minnesota added more grocery pick up spots. #mnleg

The Have-Nots vs the Have-Yachts. Teachers can write off only $300 of school supplies for their classrooms on their taxes. CEOs can write off the full cost of their yachts. This is what it looks like when billionaires pay millionaires to write laws to benefit billionaires.
