Here's the secret the voucher lobby doesn't want you to know: Private school vouchers rarely open doors for families seeking "choice." More often, they funnel taxpayers' hard-earned cash to those already enrolled in private school. #msedu #msleg

@NnadiArts1 Phenomenal! 💕

If our state has an extra dime to spend, it needs to go to pay raises for the public school teachers who have worked a "miracle" for Mississippi. Not a dime more for unaccountable private schools. VOTE NO on HB 1944. #msleg #msedu

This clip shows how original versions of TV shows have been shortened via syndication and streaming. But the bigger takeaway is that most people don’t realize it. In an era where books are being banned and original materials are becoming harder to find. This is just a small/fun example of that concept. If we don’t hold on to original copies of books, newspapers, magazines, vinyl, commercial VHS tapes, television recorded VHS tapes, cassette tapes, DVDs, original news broadcasts etc, we will watch history be edited with holes in it where things are missing and presented as though it is the complete picture. Here’s a light example of that concept.

Ask your legislators to PASS:
- $5K teacher pay raise
- ast teacher pay raise
- middle grades literacy initiative
- math initiative
- retired teachers program improvements
Tell senators to VOTE NO: HB 1944 - increases state funding to unaccountable private schools through the CPA

Yesterday was the deadline for House bills to pass Sen committees & for Sen bills to pass House committees. Very few of the bills TPC follows made it out alive. Almost a repeat of last year's session, in which the House killed the Senate bills & the Senate killed the House bills.

[Van⌝ @_OfficiallyVan]

BUT, there are still options to get important legislation like a teacher pay raise passed (both pay raise bills died today). Tell legislators to find a way to make it happen!

https://t.co/gNjjolZN08: HB 1944 sends $20M/yr to private schools through dollar-for-dollar tax credits. Meaning- donors give to private schools & the state pays them back in full. Reducing money available for public schools while requiring no accountability from private schools.
