.@Shannonrwatts is right: What is freedom if we aren’t free to enjoy parades, go grocery shopping, learn in school, or do anything without the threat of gun violence?
Text ACT to 644-33 to join us in the fight to #EndGunViolence.

Being able to take your kid to a Fourth of July parade without getting slaughtered is freedom. momsdemandaction.org"

As a father & Secretary of Education, I’m deeply disheartened that the “Don’t Say Gay” law went into effect in Florida today. But I remain committed to the fight for dignity, opportunity, and the protection of civil rights for every student & family.

I pray our nation has not grown numb to the horrors that unfolded at Robb Elementary School. How many more lives must be lost before we realize that we, the people, and those we elect, have the power and the opportunity to ensure this never happens again?

There is no such thing as being “pro-life” while supporting laws that let children be shot in their schools, elders in grocery stores, worshippers in their houses of faith, survivors by abusers, or anyone in a crowded place.
It is an idolatry of violence. And it must end.

Do you have trouble telling fact from fiction online? 🤔

Wearing a mask is about respect.
It shows you stand up when it counts. It shows you have joined the battle. It shows you care about your country.
I can’t think of a more patriotic thing.

On National Gun Violence Awareness Day, we #WearOrange to honor the victims and survivors of gun violence––which continues to disproportionately harm Black communities. Then keep speaking up, voting, and changing laws across the country.

Removing monuments is not going to end racism but it does remove barriers to the dreams of black children in America. Imagine having to walk by a tribute to your peoples’ enslavement everyday or attending a school named after it. That’s oppressive and spirit killing.

More schools closing for the academic year due to covid-19. Continue to mobilize & collaborate to make sure that our most vulnerable students get the technological, emotional & instructional support they need! Connect resources to families & students. This is a BIG equity issue.
