A ragamuffin follower of Christ, animal lover, teacher, actor, francophile, espanophile (I know, not a real word), and lover of sun and sea.
I borrowed about 1400 for tuition in 84. I graduated in 86. By 96, I still owed $800 after FAITHFULLY paying the minimum for 8 years. I came into a little money (I was a poorly paid NC teacher) and finally paid it off. I can't imagine how long it takes people who need to borrow every year.
Oh, so jacking up grocery prices, crashing the stock market, threatening to slash Medicaid & SNAP, and slapping on ridiculous tariffs wasn’t enough?
Now Trump’s coming for your paycheck and your tax refund—just because you fell behind on student loans during a pandemic.

Michigan’s red flag law is saving lives.
In just one year, it’s helped stop potential school shootings, domestic violence, suicide, and more.
Now Republicans want to repeal it. I wrote about why we can’t let them. www.detroitnews.com/story/opinio...

McMorrow: Red flag law is saving lives
I will never forget the devastated parents I met with after the Oxford High School and Michigan State shootings. Their lives were shattered.

Since day one, I've said education is the foundation for our success as a state.
Donald Trump is failing not only our students but our state — and I’m not going to stand for it and neither will the Illinois Education Association.
Rest assured, we’ll use every tool to fight back.
