    "Teachers organizing for change isn’t about leaving for better pay elsewhere, it’s about correcting that imbalance so public schools are properly funded and educators are paid fairly where they already serve.” Joanna Loftis, @PENCVoice

    RT @GovMurphy: NEW: I just signed bipartisan legislation establishing a bell-to-bell ban on cell phones in K-12 schools. This policy is a no-brainer. It will help boost academic achievement, protect the mental well-being of our students, and restore focus in our classrooms. Schools are places for learning, socializing, and interacting – not distracting screens.

    Congress is voting on whether or not to extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits for another 3 years, helping working families afford the care they need. Please call your representative at (218) 453-8077 & tell them: Extend the ACA tax credits. #HealthcareHeist

    WATCH: If Congress fails to extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits, millions of working families will be forced to pay more for the care they need - many will even lose their coverage. Learn more from RN Catharyne Henderson. #HealthcareHeist

    RT @rweingarten: TX's actions are a transparent effort to smear educators, divide our communities, and deny our kids opportunities to learn & thrive. Educators should be judged on their work, not some culture war that exploits horrific violence for political ends.

    RT @rweingarten: This is a reckless, heinous act of violence against an American citizen. The officer must be held accountable. DHS must stop lying about the horror that was caught on video. ICE must leave our communities immediately.
