I was thrilled to join @amprog's Summit on Education today, discussing public education as a pillar of our democracy. We must protect, defend, and transform our public schools as though our children are depending on us—because they are.

When Trump was elected, we said Abortion access was on the chopping block. When Kavanaugh was confirmed, we said Roe was going to be overturned. When Roe was overturned, we told you they’d go to extremes. When they went to extremes and passed bans with no exceptions, we
