Funding & personnel cuts have ground essential reading and education research to a halt and upended a small division of the US Department of Education called the Institute of Education Sciences (IES). Contact your state legislator now! #StandUpforReadingResearch #SaveIES

The use of the death penalty in the United States is one of the ugliest stains on our broken criminal justice system. It is disproportionately imposed against poor people and people of color. We must abolish it once and for all.
