In this new episode, guest host @troy-a-swanson.bsky.social chats with @bradleydeanc.bsky.social about his experience at the U.S. Department of Education, the impact of recent mass firings, and what these changes mean for students, educators, and the future of American education.

I am very grateful for Bradley’s time and sharing his story about the attacks on the dismantling of the department of education and the larger impact it is going to have on American education.
Thx to Steve Thomas for letting me guest host.

Thanks to representative Norma Hernandez and Senator Karina Villa for their great work in moving this legislation forward.

I also discussed the proposed GOP federal budget that decimates Pell grants and eliminates TRIO grants, which will have a disastrous impact on community college students.

We are hoping to see this move into hearings in the Senate.
