Tell @GovBillLee that our students deserve serious, thoughtful conversations about our country's complex and painful history. We shouldn't force SB 623, which glorifies a past rooted in white supremacy, onto students in our state. Tell Lee to VETO SB 623. #LearnFromOurPast#TNLeg
Our students deserve better than SB623, which glorifies a past rooted in white supremacy while silencing the experiences of all who have suffered through inequalities that exist today. @GovBillLee should VETO this bill. #LearnFromOurPast#TNLeg
We should support our teachers, not threaten funding to their schools if they teach students about our nation’s history of racial oppression. @GovBillLee, we need you to VETO SB623 and #LearnFromOurPast#TNLeg
Tell @GovBillLee to veto SB623, which will censor school discussions of our country's history of racism and sexism. Stop this backwards censorship bill and let our students #LearnFromOurPast#TNLeg
Banning crucial conversations about racism is a clear step in the wrong direction on our long march for true equity in Tennessee. @GovBillLee, please veto SB623 and #LearnFromOurPast#TNLeg
SB623 will erase America’s painful history of racism and oppression from Tennessee classrooms – a legacy that still impacts our country today. @GovBillLee – do the right thing and veto this ugly, dangerous bill. #LearnFromOurPast#TNLeg
