Ages 0-4 are the most important, emotionally & intellectually, in human development.

Yet, in the US, we have a very high rate of childhood poverty and a broken child care system.

Congratulations to New Mexico for leading the way forward for high quality, free child care. Other states must follow.

We need the best educated workforce in the world.

We need the best teachers in the world.

We need to pay our teachers fairly for the important work they do.

No teacher in America should begin at less than $60,000 a year.

I think people reeeeealllly overestimate the role of trade and industrial policy in US dominance of heavy industry in the 1950s and really underestimate the importance of having dropped high explosives on every facility in Japan or Germany capable of manufacturing a ball bearing

In Amite County, MS, about 900 kids attend the local public schools — which, as of 2021, were 16% white.

More than 600 kids attend two private schools — which were 96% white.

Can someone explain to me why fighting for policies championed 80 years ago by one of the most popular Presidents in our nation’s history make me a “progressive?” Also, pretty sure these are supported by a super majority of voters. Does that mean everyone else should be called regressives?
