Now it’s time to use my teacher voice in the halls of Congress.

Built my campaign website this weekend. Trial and error, late nights, and a few lost pages along the way. It isn’t perfect, but it’s real. I’ll keep improving it, hoping people see my heart and desire to serve. Like democracy, it can be messy but worth the fight.

I’ve read this book, it spoke to the heart of what I try to do in my classroom, teach students to think critically, ask questions and understand their role in a democracy. Thank you, Randi Weingarten, for reminding us that defending public education is at the heart of defending democracy itself.
Attacking public education is a classic authoritarian tactic because schools teach critical thinking and foster pluralism. In my new book, "Why Fascists Fear Teachers," I talk about what this fight for public education means for our democracy.

We are upset, like many, that the ACA tax credits are not restored in this “deal” to reopen the govt. But let’s be clear why: the Rs refused to budge as the hunger & aviation crises worsened. Let’s be clear who is hurting working families. The AFT will keep fighting www.aft.org/press-releas...

Lessons from the Trail: The Starting Line.
When I started teaching American Government, I never imagined I would be running for Congress.
I did not plan this, and I do not see myself as a politician.
I am a teacher who believes democracy only works when we do.

If there was ever book that should read, it is this one! Education has been under attack for years, and it has been by design. Randi Weingarten clearly calls out the attacks for what they are, an attempt to dismantle the cornerstone of democracy and lead us all into the dark depths of tyranny.
A great night with @votejgr.bsky.social discussing Why Facists Fear Teachers with a crowd of dozens of educators & community members in San Juan.

Trump asked the Supreme Court to let him withhold food aid during the shutdown, and tonight they agreed. That means families, children, and seniors who rely on SNAP could go hungry while billionaires get tax cuts.
The Supreme Court has granted the Trump administration’s emergency appeal to temporarily block a court order to fully fund SNAP food aid payments during the government shutdown.
