Happy #PresidentsDay2018! Tennessee just celebrates George Washington, but we know it started with him + Abraham Lincoln, and it grew to give federal workers time off, because workers deserve breaks too.

Here’s what you need to know: 1) it’s HB2208 2) the House sponsor, David Byrd (the acct has only been used once) is amending it to arm teachers statewide 3) this bill is in Civil sub at 1:30 pm in the Cordell Hull Building, hearing room 3. x.com/tndemocrats/st…

Protecting our children in schools should be priority #1, but TN #HB2208 would have unintentional, negative consequences. Our ed. system has enough stress w/o having to add the arming of teachers.

The Civil Justice Subcommittee has recommended this bill, and it is moving forward. Please call and make your voices heard. Rep. Mike Carter, Chair Hamilton County - (615)741-3025 wapp.capitol.tn.gov/apps/BillInfo/…

And with all this reinvestment on ML King Blvd, the Bessie Smith Cultural Center is going to be the centerpiece. Thank you @WDEF for shedding some light on the silver-lining. wdef.com/2018/03/05/wor… x.com/Chattanooga_go…

Our communities were built by selfless women who worked long hours to raise their families, support their neighbors, & make sure tomorrow was a better day. Though we celebrate them today, may we remember this everyday. Happy #IWD2018, to one and all!

This type of proactive legislation is the kind TN needs. Let's continue to support our schools by supporting those who attend and work in them. x.com/LoveforHouse58…

We remember the 1906 unjust lynching of innocent #EdJohnson today. SCOTUS tried to save him, but a mob took his life in their own hands. Regional rule still varies frm fed rule, though the brutality today is legalized. #MassIncarceration is a problem, & TN needs to fix its system

And the more voices involved in the process & execution, the greater the success the city will have in serving & raising its people. x.com/ChattanoogaID/…
