Thank you @jbaileyky & @KyPolicy for the graphics they have created for each public school district and how the new constitutional amendment would harm funding levels. Vote NO on Amendment 2!

BREAKING: With fear mongering & racism on full display, anti-DEI bill Senate 6 passed the House today.

SB 6 chills speech & eviscerate organizations, activities, & administrative mechanisms that keep students safe.

SB6 passed the senate last week and is headed to the House Education Committee. Offices are closed today, but the fight isn’t over. Protect tour coworkers and students by opposing SB6. Join the union and join in the struggle, because organizing is the only way change will come.

Solidarity with our colleagues in KY. The same partisan politics are targeting academics throughout red states. Make no mistake that the attacks on tenure and academic freedom in IN are part of the same plan. Shame on those who abet them. #StopSB202 & all similar bills.

Right now, some very misguided politicians are trying to end academic freedom Join the union and join in the struggle, because organizing is the only way change will come.
