NEW: I went to Turning Point USA's Young Women's Leadership Summit in Texas this weekend. Famous career women in right-wing media repeatedly told the audience of college and high school age girls: Give up your dreams to get married and have babies.

πππAnother reminder: testimony before the House Higher Ed Committee on #SB17 was overwhelmingly against the bill! Current and former students shared how essential DEI programs were to their success. NOT ONE student testified that they had been harmed by DEI! #txlege #DefendDEI
A few reminders as we prepare to hear the House debate anti-DEI #SB17. DEI programs DO NOT require loyalty oaths, they DO NOT divide students or encourage discrimination. DEI helps build inclusive campuses that benefit all students, staff, and faculty members. πππ#DefendDEI

I rarely agree with Ch*istophe* *ufo but even he thinks tenure is good. #SB18 @DadePhelan #AcademicFreedom @TFN @TexasAFT @
Here are House members who might be potential allies for amending or defeating the House version of anti-tenure #SB18. When calling, ask to speak to the staff member who handles higher ed issues. These Reps. Have community colleges and public universities in their district 1/

Our public schools need more funding, not less. Vouchers are not the way to support our kids β investing in #TxEd is. Vote NO on #SB8, Rep. @stevefortx
