Trump’s Project 2025 agenda promises to dismantle labor unions. But the labor movement knows how to fight back when anyone comes after our freedoms. We won’t be divided, and we won’t back down. labortribune.com/opinion-trump-…

Tim and I could not be more grateful for the support you all have shown us over the past few months. Let's take everything we are feeling — our fear, our fatigue, our frustration — and use it as our fuel. Now more than ever, we cannot and will not give up this fight.

"Hope Walz gets it: It’s the small things that sustain the fight, the ways we connect and build power together." 🫶🏽💪🏽

Tim Walz' daughter Hope Walz is showing us how to process anger, sadness, and fear without losing our humanity. teenvogue.visitlink.me/77gg87



SW Philly represent!! @PHLschools like Catharine offer stability & safety all young people deserve. Now that our most vulnerable children are facing new threats, we know educators are prepared to stand up to protect them - because they've got the power of a union 💪#PHLed

We're going to defend the @NLRB's decision to end captive audience meetings with everything we've got. Workers deserve the freedom to choose union representation without fear or intimidation. This ruling is a game-changer for workplace justice. nytimes.com/2024/11/13/bus…

Post-Gazette management came to the table with a proposal unchanged since 2022. That’s NOT bargaining in good faith. The @PGHGuild is standing strong, fighting for what’s fair. It’s time for the company to respect workers and follow the NLRB’s ruling. unionprogress.com/2024/11/14/in-…


We 💚 @JalenHurts but his generosity doesn't mean the PA legislature's off the hook for decades of underfunding our schools! #PHLed #FundOurFacilities

Yes—and*— that the PA legislature, writ large, is perfectly fine with abandoning its responsibilities to largely Black and brown school districts is abhorrent and was ruled unconstitutional in a court of law.

.@SenatorHughes was out in West Philly this week helping students learn about their college options. We talked admissions, financial aid, and scholarships. There are so many ways to make college a reality! #TheMoreYouKnow

‘A stunning public rebuke’: When voters had the choice, they rejected private school vouchers keystonenewsroom.com/2024/11/14/vot…

Thank you, @SecCardona for joining us in celebrating School Psychologists this #SchoolPsychWeek! We are grateful for your leadership and the work you do at @usedgov to support mental health in schools. See the full video: nasponline.org/research-and-p…

Reminder: 57% of Nebraska voters repealed a DeVos voucher law last week. 65% of Kentucky voters stopped a voucher push cold. Both states when hard for Donald Trump at the same time. This isn’t left-right. It’s real parents knowing vouchers really won’t help them.

Governor Abbott, please publish your list of 79 “hardcore” voucher proponents. I believe some of them may be surprised to be on this list…

The argument against transparency from for-profit charter schools—like those in MI—is “schools will close!” There’s no evidence that happens. But what does happen is when the numbers don’t work for the business they close anyway—leaving kids to scramble. cbsnews.com/detroit/news/r…

"Public schools are responsible for setting their policies based on the law, not any personal or religious belief," said Kristina Moon, a senior attorney with Education Law Center. @WGAL investigates Independence Law Center's push for anti-LGBTQ policies. wgal.com/article/south-…


"The former board received advice on the transgender athlete ban, including a draft policy, from the Independence Law Center, a religious liberties law firm based in Harrisburg, according to emails obtained by the @CourierTimes."

"Advocates say the law still protects transgender children, pointing to regulations from the PA Human Relations Commission that prohibit discrimination based on gender identity, as well as case law, including a 2018 federal court decision" (Boyertown). inquirer.com/education/cent…
