🛠️ Extending our gratitude to the labor force that fuels our city and keeps us moving #ForwardTogether! 9/1 #LaborDay - RAPID service is fare free and operates on 30-minute frequency from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Oklahoma House Democratic Leader Cyndi Munson, D-Oklahoma City, issued a statement in response to a court hearing involving a member of the Oklahoma House of Representatives and joined a call for him to step down from his position.

Today we honor the work force that built and sustains our nation and we pay tribute to the labor movement who stood up for fair wages, safe conditions, and dignity at work.

There you have it — Ryan Walters is resigning as State Superintendent to become CEO of a right wing organization.

The U.S. is getting older—and so are policies keeping housing out of reach for older Americans, let alone all. While we can’t stop aging, we can certainly put a stop to the red tape fueling the housing shortage. #HousingPolicy @aarp @harvard_jchs pewtrsts.org/3HjwAvF

This news doesn’t erase the damage Walters has caused— to students, educators and our communities, but I’m still grateful we can move forward and return to focusing on kids.

We are hopeful the Governor selects a State Super that: 📚 puts Oklahoma’s teachers, families, and students first 📚 uplifts and empowers teachers 📚 prioritizes people over politics

Fifty years ago, our nation made a promise: every child has a right to an education, and disability will not be a barrier. We cannot abandon that promise now.
