The Trump admin's decimation of the Institute of Education Sciences is a HUGE blow to evidence-based education. Gutting the ability to collect and analyze data will hurt students, teachers, and taxpayers. How can we improve education without facts? hechingerreport.org/proof-points...

Folks, #Trump is lying. He just said his plan calls for “no tax on tips, OT, or Social Security.” But the Tax Bill the House GOP just passed has absolutely none of this. Zero. Nada. Nothing.
But it does have trillions in new tax cuts for billionaires.

So GOP-greedy! Not surprising.
Already hearing that Republican members have been showing up to the House floor trying to take up the Dem side seats for the joint address 💀

Could you imagine being Joni Ernst, fighting your whole career to counter sexual assault in the military and then voting for this terrible man? Shameful and disgusting.

This is excellent! Be a #Supercitizen!
In a world gone mad, the most powerful acts of resistance don’t involve posting on social media, but engaging in your community. Here’s my piece from last summer on the value of Supercitizens, who don’t just provide the glue that keeps us together, but also live longer because of it.
