Advocates with CM @Kristin4Harlem before stated meetings. Thank you Council Member for being an education leader, for voting no originally, and for continuing the fight to #RestoreTheCuts. Community and education groups will remember who stood with us, and who did not.

@NYCMayor calling people protesting over $1B in @NYCSchools budget cuts “clowns”. Really? Thanks @MATTtheG and all those who showed up to demand that our schools are fully funded!

@DOEChancellor had a grand total of ONE meeting with student organizers who he can’t tokenize this year and no one has heard from his since. You can’t possibly think this is what WE want. Where is the #StudentVoice? Where is the equity in more chances to fight for scraps?

Trump is ahead in Fla by less than 400K votes but it’s NOT a red state.
774K people in Fla. are disenfranchised ONLY because of unpaid fines.
In Feb., an appeals court ruled 6-4 that Fla. felons can’t vote until they pay all of their fines
5 of the judges were Trump appointees

Keep calm. Be patient. Allow local elections officials to do their jobs. What is most important isn’t the speed of the count; it’s that every eligible vote is counted. Americans made their voices heard in record numbers, and their votes must be counted. #Election2020

We must root out racism in our Education System.
For 49 yrs the @NYSenate & @NYSAssembly have allowed a Racist Law to govern admission to 8 NYC high schools. That must end NOW. #RepealHechtCalandra

The Brooklyn Memorial site on 25th and 5th continues to grow. It didn’t have to be this way. We lift up the names of our mothers, fathers, grandparents, wives, husbands, aunts, uncles, neighbors. You are all essential. #namingthelost #NombrandoalosFallecidos.
