Your reminder that the top 1% evades $163 billion in taxes each year โ but instead of garnishing their wages and withholding their tax refunds, they get more tax breaks and the elimination of the teams at the IRS who investigate tax evasion. This is what an oligarchy looks like.
BREAKING: Trump's Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt just said: โThe government can and will collect defaulted federal student loan debt by withholding tax refunds, federal pensions, and even their wages.โ

Just when you think they can't go any lower- HHS dismantles the Advisory Committee on Newborn Screening. Make no mistakes. This is catastrophic. And I won't attempt to sugar coat it any longer. HHS is putting the health of our children at stake.

The administration is attempting to eliminate the union rights of federal employees across the government. We will vigorously challenge yesterdayโs illegal order and fight on behalf of union members across the nation.

BREAKING: CEA joins teachers and parents from State Rep. @BrianStewartOHโs House District to demand that he do his job and fully fund schools! The school districts Stewart represents face a total of $76,000,000 in cuts. Unacceptable. Our Schools, and our futures, are #InOurHands!

If you think that this regime is just going to try to move education funds into new agencies without rolling back rules and protections for kids, or without losing crucial dollars because DOGE says so, you havenโt been paying attention to the last few weeks.

As seen in other states, the SC voucher fund has insufficient accountability & oversight. So far: - $1.5 million sent to Florida-based company called Class Wallet to administer. - $1.5 million spent on 4,387 computers. We donโt know what type of computers are being bought or

OK, I'm going to try to make this simple. Measles is VERY, VERY contagious. More contagious than flu. Or Covid. Or RSV. When vaccination rates drop, measles can spread like wildfire. Some children will get very sick. A few will die. That's why it is important.

A crucial article. Ohio politicians often claim they've been increasing school funding, but that claim ignores reality Public schools, which 90% of #Ohio kids attend, have been starved while the state funnels $$ to unregulated charter/private schools https://t.co/0UuGhiEdU8

McMahon goes on record saying private schools funded by taxpayer vouchersโincluding a federal voucher schemeโdo and should have the right to turn children away if those children donโt fit those private schoolsโ needs. Itโs not parent choice. Itโs the schoolโs choice.

.@SenAshleyMoody I know you think that dig at brave educators speaking up today was cute. However, have you ever asked them if itโs difficult to โmaintain calmโ during shooter drills (& shootings), under constant attacks to public schools, their students & profession, etc.?

To be clear: If you had listened to educators as theyโve begged for more support & taken their expertise to heart, they would not need to disrupt to be heard. (And, re: disruptions, please read about the Civil Rights Movement. Ask a teacher for help if itโs confusing for you.)
