Sacred Duty is an incredible portrayal of the heroism of the Old Guard. I’ll visit the sacred grounds of Arlington National Cemetery next week with a newfound appreciation of the sacrifice and heroism of countless American soldiers. Thanks for telling their stories @TomCottonAR

No one goes into #teaching for the #money, but a lot of incredibly talented, would-be transformative teachers stay out because of the lack of 💰 and lack of incentives once in. Merit pay would go a long ways towards bringing more great talent into the field and benefiting kids.
