@doelouisiana doesn't actually want the best schools to win. It wants the money to go to schools #least responsive to their communities. @cadebrumley @nationalmerit

Louisiana has been awarded $13.5 million to enhance school choice.

@usedgov released a record $500 million to states.

We’re investing in what works: reading, math, attendance, and career readiness. #laed #lalege #lagov @EDSecMcMahon @LAGovJeffLandry

🚨MAJOR BREAKING: The U.S. Supreme Court has voted 7-2 to BLOCK Trump from deporting Venezuelan migrants under the Alien Enemies Act for now. Trump is also getting his ass kicked on the Birthright issue: Amy Coney Barrett demolished Trump’s attorneys.

[Young Dems of LA @YDLouisiana]

Y’all showed up and made it count. From East Baton Rouge to Lake Charles, voters protected schools, shut down bad taxes, and won a House seat.

Every vote mattered bc Orleans passed its millage by just two votes.

This is how we build power. Let’s keep going. #lalege #lagov #ydl

[Dustin Granger @GrangerForLa]

Lake Charles just made history. Marshall Simien is now the city's first Black mayor, winning as an Independent and proving that real leadership rises when people come together across party lines.

This is what progress looks like in Louisiana. Let's keep going. #louisiana #lakecharles

And then one final note that I don't think gets discussed enough about why some lawmakers are skeptical of LA GATOR (@LAGovJeffLandry's voucher expansion.)

There aren't many private schools in their rural districts for kids to use a voucher to attend. (See more below.) #lalege

[Mayor Satya Rhodes-Conway @SatyaForMadison]

Hands Off Madison Wisconsin! Hands off our democracy! #HandsOff

AMENDMENTS 1, 3, AND 4 WILL FAIL AS WELL

This was a "primal scream" kind of vote, driven by robust Democratic EV turnout that Im not seeing being offset by a strong GOP Election Day vote.

[Shannon Heckt @ShannonHeckt]

Democrats are out pacing Republicans for early voting with 4 major constitutional amendments on the ballot. There’s also been a big uptick in Black voters #lalege #lagov
