The accountability lies with Mitch McConnell. Never forget.

Diversity matters.
Equity is essential.
Inclusion is non-negotiable.

This isn’t about politics. It’s about basic humanity.

My kids walk into public schools every day. So do my students. I’ve spent my life fighting for themβ€”and I’m not stopping now.
To those standing strong against this cruel bill: thank you.
To those who didn’t: you failed our kids, our communities, and our families. We’re watching.

As I see it, this is Mitch McConnell’s agenda start to finish. His legacy has always been serving the rich and sacrificing the restβ€”and he should be held just as responsible as the others carrying it out.

Final vote. 50-50. VP breaks the tie.

One single GOP Senator could have stopped this abomination. Saved millions of parents from watching their child go hungry. Saved the lives destroyed when Medicaid disappears.

They will all live forever with the horror of this bill.

Fighting for your state doesn’t mean selling out the rest of the country. Every vote leaves a legacy.

We won’t forget who sold us outβ€”and we damn sure won’t forget who stood up and fought back.

While Senate Republicans and the White House are trying to cut dirty deals and jam their big abomination of a bill through the Senate Floorβ€”I want to take a moment to thank the three heroines of the Supreme Court holding it down for our democracy and the rule of law every day! So grateful! ❀️

When this Bigly Shitstorm of a bill passes, I’ll hold Mitch McConnell accountableβ€”
for every dollar stolen from public schools,
every right stripped away,
and every life put at risk.

He built this. He owns it. We’re not getting over it.

This is Mitch McConnell’s Court.
His design.
His damage.
His legacy.
And yesβ€”his responsibility.

Mitch McConnell could’ve stopped this years ago. Instead, he paved the way. This is his legacy.

You need a distraction? Go play golf.
Not with missiles. Not with lives. Not with war.

I’m a parent in a red stateβ€”and Mitch McConnell is my senator.
I’m furious, but not surprised.

If you're in Congress and still silent, you're complicit.
My kids deserve better. I won’t forget who failed them.

I’m a mom and educator in a deep red state.
I call. I write. I vote. I show up.
I try to help my kids make sense of what’s happening.
But the power grabs keep coming. The extremism keeps spreading.
Some days, it feels like nothing is enough.
What do we do when doing everything still isn’t enough?

I think we can all agree Pete Hegseth cannot be trusted to proctor, monitor, or securely store a state test.

If any teacher texts state test information, takes a picture of a state test question, refers to or shares specifics of a state test question, they would likely lose their job. Why are we not holding our US Secretary of Defense to the same level of scrutiny?

We, the people, deserve better

We wouldn't question any other professional for leaving a job that doesn't treat them well, why are #teachers exempt? Especially, when they are likely to be #MoreEducated and have more #AdvancedDegrees than most. The fact that there isn't a larger #teachershortage in #publiceducation is a miracle.

Most employers fire their employees when they refuse to do their job. Indiana lawmakers make decisions that directly impact your livlihood and mine. I think it's clear we want people creating laws that improve the lives of our families and communities. Let's remember this when it's time to vote ⬇️

One thing Trump didn't talk about last night: his plans to abandon American women’s right to abortion care in medical emergencies.

I wonder why he wouldn't want anyone to know that.

During WW2, four brothers from a Jewish family signed up to fight against the Nazis. Only one of the four brothers survived.

His grandson is the current President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky
