Call every Detroit City Council member by 10am! Tell them to vote no on Dan Gilbert getting a 60 million dollar tax abatement.
That money is meant for our schools, neighborhoods, libraries, and recreation!

PS: Bedrock made a billion dollars last quarter

If you care about students gun control needs to happen now and investing 300 million in school mental health supports in Michigan.

[Dave Boucher @Dave_Boucher1]

Moss: The time for action was a long time ago. We cannot have one more wondering if it's their last day in this state and in this country where they can go to school safely.

[482Forward @482Forward]

This. Schools should be sanctuaries. Gun control is education justice.

[Moms Demand Action @MomsDemand]

Schools should be sanctuaries of safety for our children, not where they go to die.

Join the millions of Americans demanding our lawmakers stand up to the gun lobby so our children don’t have to stand up to gunmen. Text ACT to 644-33.

[482Forward @482Forward]

To be clear - we meant the answer ISN'T tax breaks for the rich but TAX FAIRNESS!

[482Forward @482Forward]

Conservatives in the Michigan legislature would rather give tax breaks to the wealthy than fund our schools and roads. Tell them to fund Michigan kids, not the wealthy! #FundMIFuture #mileg https://t.co/AmvC9cwxiT

Michigan's schools are 4 billion dollars underfunded. A strong recovery means investing in our people & not more corporate giveaways. #babiesoverbillionaires #mileg

[482Forward @482Forward]

Our students and educators deserve safety. These are the consequences of inaction from adults. Gun reform and fully fund our schools and communities!

Three students are dead. When will enough be enough?

[482Forward @482Forward]

If we actually invested in our youth - this wouldn't keep happening. Our youth don't just need prayers they deserve policy change - gun reform and fully funded mental health supports and schools. #mileg don't just talk but act in memory of the three beautiful lives lost.

[482Forward @482Forward]

Our hearts are broken for Oxford HS and our angry is reignited to fight for gun reform and fully fund the supports our students need.

#mileg prayers will not be enough. PRAYERS and POLICY CHANGE in Michigan NOW!

Ya'll ready to take on school building finance with us? Not the sexist of issues BUT we can't create healthy and healing schools without healthy buildings!

[Schott Foundation for Public Education @SchottFound]

The brutal intersection of finance, race & education: "the Detroit Public Schools Community District, as a practical matter, has no taxing authority; property taxes collected for schools in Detroit go to pay down debts accrued by the old school district." https://t.co/pc5KAgfuwL
