"They are mad," says Hickey, co-founder of the center-right group N2 America, "and they want to hold someone accountable."

These numbers reflect what @lieslhickey, @MarieTSanderson, and our partners have been saying for well over a year.

1. Parents are paying attention
2. They are **NOT** happy

[N2 America @N2_America]

Bizarre to hire a superintendent who learned nothing from the failed pandemic response for our kids and education system—especially In Fairfax County!

Always read @rorycooper.

[Rory Cooper @rorycooper]

Fairfax County schools hired a new superintendent last week and Michelle Reid may be even worse than the last one - and I didn’t think that was possible. Bad on closures, achievement, mental health and a sexual abuse scandal to boot. https://t.co/G4lgYCaeMf

#LetKidsLearn champion Rory Cooper with some hard truths for @fcpsnews new Superintendant.

[Rory Cooper @rorycooper]

If you want to see why some school systems haven't learned a single thing from the past two years, look no further than the @fcpsnews search for a new Superintendent to replace Scott Brabrand who was an exceptional failure. 1/13

[N2 America @N2_America]

Our own @lieslhickey has been a broken record on this—COVID policies that put kids last will not be forgotten.

“… parents are looking for someone to hold accountable. I mean, parents have a long memory when it comes to how their children have been treated.”

“Everybody wanted their kids back in school—it wasn’t just Republicans." Good piece by @MichaelCBender, and one Democrats should heed. These voters aren't forgetting. https://t.co/G7GPI2LwQi

#LetKidsLearn is a movement and it’s not ideological, it’s common-sense

Average gas prices for a gallon of regular gas are over $4 right now across Virginia! @GovernorVA @GlennYoungkin has proposed a 3 month gas tax holiday which would save drivers 26.2 cents per gallon. The proposal would mean real savings for all Virginians!

[N2 America @N2_America]

Not so fast.

It took leadership and legislation from @Dunnavant4VA and @ChapPetersen to get Virginia’s schools reopened.

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

Getting students back in the classroom was one of my top priorities when I took office — and thanks to my American Rescue Plan, more than 99% of our schools are safely open for in-person learning. Last week, I got to hear from a few future presidents about why that matters.

[Rory Cooper @rorycooper]

If he said 'look we made mistakes and I'm going to try and fix what was broken' I'd at least respect that. This is just pure gaslighting. His administration colluded with unions to keep schools closed and parents won't forget.

[N2 America @N2_America]

They should! A darn good playbook because parents just want to be heard—a voice.

Today marks 2 yrs since the Suburban Summit. I'm proud of what we've done in the Suburban Caucus so far & look forward to advancing the great work done w/ my colleagues to fight for Americans on critical issues like stopping inflation, keeping streets safe, & lowering gas prices.

[N2 America @N2_America]

Two strong leaders who get the suburbs.

Missouri Congresswoman @AnnLWagner, Chair of the Suburban Caucus and Virginia State Senator @Dunnavant4VA, who represents the Richmond suburbs.

[N2 America @N2_America]

Two years ago today we launched N2 America.

The world has changed a lot, but we’re proud to provide insight into what matters to suburban Americans. We will continue to be a voice for what they want—like our #LetKidsLearn push.

"The cost of living is going up, so taxes must come down," writes @GlennYoungkin in the @RTDNEWS.

This is what the majority (but not the loudest) are looking for from their gov't. Logical, common-sense solutions. The Gov is, once again, reading the room.

New study shows that covid school closures affected cognitive and motor development in preschoolers. Learning loss is most pronounced in kids most at risk. We must focus on keeping kids in school and on closing educational disparities. @biannagolodryga https://t.co/mlKm1j5kjY
