Session’s still rolling, and so are we. The laws being debated right now will shape our futures for years to come. Even if you can’t be at the Capitol, you can still make a difference. 🎯 Session ends June 12. Stay tuned for updates that actually impact you. #LaLege #LaGov

#HB685 is up for debate in the House today. This bill would ban diversity, equity, and inclusion programs across state agencies and campuses; even classes on systemic racism or gender identity. Contact your representative now and ask them to vote NO. #LaLege #NoOnHB685 #LaGov

Today we remember the brave souls who gave everything so that others could speak out, stand up, and serve. Their sacrifice makes it possible for us to fight for equity and justice in every Louisiana classroom. We honor them by continuing the work.
