A great read from Elizabeth Campbell about the changes in Southlake. “We ought to go out and do what needs to be done to protect everybody. It matters not who someone loves or who someone sleeps with or how one identifies, they are part of the human race.” star-telegram.com/news/local/com…
This entire 🧵 from Texas House Rep James Talarico is a master class in shredding the arguments put forth on a bill that would force the 10 Commandments to be posted in all Texas public school classrooms. Watch every clip. He’s spot on. #txlege #txed
So many of the horrible things happening in America right now, like teaching our children slaves were lucky to learn skills, or allowing women to bleed out in hospital parking lots, or pushing migrants into rivers to drown, could be stopped by the women who look exactly like me.
The school board and administrators of our district Carroll ISD in City of Southlake cannot balance a budget, cannot retain teachers, cannot advocate for state funding, cannot get new laptops! But what can they do? Punch down on those who need to be protected.
Church folks all over Texas are gravely concerned about a private school voucher program that Texans neither need nor want. They are letting their voices be heard, including this powerful letter from retired #txed teacher and First UMC, Dallas lay leader Dana Friedel. Dallas Morning News

Listen to the young people! I’d love to see more people actually capture the voices of the youth who are impacted by this attack on public education rather than the folks who spew nonsense. Antonia Hylton, thank you for always authorizing student voice👊🏽
What if your policy proposal is so awful that you have to threaten and bully leaders of your own party to pass it? Welcome to Greg Abbott’s voucher world. If there’s one thing Texans hate it’s a bully. Abbott won’t get his voucher. #txed #txlege texasmonthly.com/news-politics/…
