ALERT While the Senate Parliamentarian struck silencer deregulation from the Senate tax bill, the gun lobby still plans to introduce an amendment. We must keep the pressure up. Email your senators at secure.everyaction.com/TXEKOQWzv0yq...

The Sen. Reconciliation bill rips open deadly loopholes allowing silencers to circumvent the rigorous background checks Americans overwhelmingly support. I joined @schumer.senate.gov @senatedemocrats.bsky.social to call out this shameful disregard for public safety.

If you know someone impacted by the #FSUshooting please get this toolkit to them ASAP. It contains extremely helpful & relevant info from @survivorsempowered.bsky.social and @giffords.org that I wish our community had access to after our #ParklandShooting.

I have SO much to do. Now that I can’t indoctrinate, I’m going to figure out what to do with all of my spare time in my classroom.

It’s almost as if they absolutely did not care at all
People who say they care about women’s and girls’ sports are noticeably quiet about how eliminating the Department of Education would end federal oversight of Title IX enforcement of the equal existence of women’s and girls’ sports

I’m worried about Nestor.
Most of Trump’s cabinet picks will be rubber stamped by this Senate. But Matt Gaetz for Attorney General is such a uniquely bad pick, it could fail. This is the one to fight against. If we defeat such a high profile nomination, we can weaken Trump right out of the gate.

The donors choose teachers will need to write to fund their classes will be staggering.
I'm so looking forward to all the GoFundMe campaigns after the Department of Education is shuttered.

Most will start with "I don't know why this just happened when..."
