"The police do not prevent crime. ... the police pretend that they are society’s best defense against crime and continually argue that if they are given more resources, especially personnel, they will be able to protect communities against crime. This is a myth."

Caleb Hemmer Fly Nashville The TNGOP doesn’t pass laws. They pass lawsuits. And how much is it costing our state in taxpayer dollars that is spent defending these laws (which are all inevitably struck down)? Yet another example of negligent governance by the GOP here in Tennessee. Hold them accountable!

“School choice” means SCHOOLS chose (not parents). I’m attending the fabulous @Network4pubEd conference in DC. @ProfessorJVH talking about how charter schools cream and crop students (select kids to attend and push out unwanted kids).

I've written thousands of words on how school vouchers are basically Robin Hood in reverse, taking from rural kids and kids who need the most and redistributing to wealthy parents. And this guy explains it much better in 2 minutes. Thanks Trae Crowder

This is the strongest statement I have seen from TSBA leadership - ever. Thank you to Dr. Dale Viox, Chair of Arlington Community Schools and President of TSBA. I look forward to more of this from your leadership. TSBA TSBA_News

Tennessee leads in rural hospital closures, ranks bottom for voter turnout, and has some of the highest # of low wage workers. This is where Republican supermajority rule has left us. In 2024, it doesn’t have to be this way—let’s keep up the fight for a better South y’all! ✊🏾💛

🔥MLK DAY FLASHBACK: “Right, governor?” Rev. Dr. William J. Barber II called out Gov. Bill Lee & those who claim to love MLK but fight AGAINST his agenda and hurt poor people— TO HIS FACE🔥 (Reposting this #MLKDay classic is our favorite tradition. Please share)

Chew on this…. A family of four making $56K isn’t eligible for free & reduced school lunch in TN. But with Jack Johnson’s Voucher bill, a family of four making $560K can receive more than 14K in private school subsidies. #ReverseRobinHood #EntitlementsJack

For Tennessee’s “school choice” debate, let’s try an experiment: Pick Tennessee’s most elite private school and its most economically disadvantaged school - and switch the students for a year (or more). Is it the school or the economic/home life that makes the real difference?

Part of me does not trust that this whole "voucher ain't passing" thing - look for a bait and switch. It ain't over till it is over. #beware #tnleg #voucherscam #zombiebill #worstever

Now - turning our attention to gun safety, always tap this excellent source and ask- what would liability mean to have teachers armed in schools since money seems to matter more than kids? $$$ #dumbidea #TNLeg Moms Demand Action Students Demand Action #Thx4advocacy studentsdemandaction.org/report/stop-ar…
