We're leaving this platform due to the rise in hate speech that targets women and people of color. The new ownership seems to think that is okay. We'll miss all of the voices of so many educators we've come to know & respect here. Find us on LinkedIn and Instagram going forward.

When Tim says “don’t ever underestimate teachers,” we mean it.

My parents were educators, and I’ve taught English and served as a school administrator. Tim and I have even shared a classroom, with a divider down the middle.

This is the experience we bring to the campaign.

there is nothing wrong with this response and honestly i gained a lot of respect for him right here

@AdamJSmithGA Chris Farley would've been so great.

On average, in the United States, substitute teachers earn between $70 and $130 per day. (Yes, I know some districts pay more…but this is the average.)

On average, the school day FOR A SUB, is 7.5 hours long.

That makes their hourly rate $13.33. 🙄

You can't go wrong with a social studies teacher. Excited to have @Tim_Walz on the ticket. Good to have someone who knows American history.

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

If Kamala Harris and Tim Walz WIN the election, Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan, a fellow Democrat, would become Minnesota’s next governor.

She would be the first female governor in Minnesota and the first Native American woman to serve as governor in the country.

As an introvert… I feel this! Both as a teacher and as a presenter.

@blssdblkwngs @NBCOlympics @Delta Soccer, tennis, basketball, softball, pickleball, table tennis, water polo, volley ball, golf...sheesh, there are a ton of *women's* sports with balls, not sure why we'd single them out.

Mary Moss is starting her 55th year as an educator. Let me repeat that… 55 years in education. After finding that out, I had to get a picture with her and ask her why she hasn’t retired yet. Her response, “Because I still love it.”
