Right now, the Fairfax GOP and Parents Defending Education, a SPLC-defined hate group, is targeting the safety of volunteers on the FCPS Family Life Education committee through scare tactics by misrepresenting the committees' actions. They endanger parents, students, and teachers on the committee.🤬

It has been a long day of driving, visiting, and seeing awesome people. I'm so tired that when I did Duolingo, I couldn't stop laughing as I read this: "Mein Partner hat eine Tante."
