The House Pub Ed Committee will vote on SB 8 Monday, which would create a costly voucher program and take funding away from our public schools. Even worse, it requires more state tests and gives the education commissioner more control over testing. #txed p2a.co/eNN7pX0

Tell the Texas House that Texans Oppose Vouchers.
Don’t let Texas politicians with agendas destroy public education.

In the last 25 years, wages for college graduates have risen 28%. Wages for teachers during the same period, only 2%.
We’re calling on states and districts to increase teacher pay. It’s time our teachers saw the support and pay they deserve.
Livable wage = Respect.

Schools scared to death.
The truth is, one education under desks,
Stooped low from bullets;
That plunge when we ask
Where our children
Shall live
& how
& if

Americans pay about 3x as much for the same prescription drugs as people in other countries. This is WRONG. @POTUS commit to action in your State of the Union. #FairRxPricesNow x.com/AARPadvocates/status/1…

This is exactly why I miss teaching! But running into one of our Ignite kiddos and getting wrapped up in a big hug is the best ever! “DJ” was just going into 8th grade and now he’s out of high school!! 😱@SharondaTims @miagfinch

1. Regardless of the outcome in VA today, everyone should familiarize themselves about hyper-politicization of school boards and the dark money groups behind it
This playbook will be repeated in hundreds of races across the country in 2022
Follow along if interested.
