In Forest Hills DC, we’d be extremely lucky to have @courtneycyarkin serve on the ANC. She’s strategic, pragmatic, & has a heart of gold that we desperately need in politics these days. And a bonus: she’s running a sustainable campaign worthy of the neighborhood she’ll represent!

I could not be happier to welcome my friend @SecSmithEllis to our EdCounsel team! Her expertise, commitment and leadership are second to none!

[Carly Sitrin @CarlySitrin]

During her time as Higher Ed Sec, Smith Ellis spearheaded NJ's free college tuition grant programs and was also instrumental in developing New Jersey’s first state plan for higher ed in over a decade, which included a “students bill of rights” aimed at closing equity gaps

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

Parents and kids are frightened. Frightened that schools aren’t safe. And frightened that the adults who run the country don’t care.

We can’t let them down.

[Arne Duncan @arneduncan]

I guarantee you there will be angry men at the NRA convention.
I guarantee you there will be mentally ill people at the NRA convention.
I also guarantee you no one will get shot there.
Why?
Because guns aren’t allowed.
Calling that ironic doesn’t begin to do it justice…

[Veterans Education Success @GIBillRights]

“After nearly a decade of advocacy by veterans and military organizations, we are relieved to finally say that the 90/10 loophole is closed, and the target has been removed from the backs of veterans, service members, and their families” - VP @Hubbard_WJ

[Veterans Education Success @GIBillRights]

“This consensus follows the pattern of strong support that closing the 90/10 loophole enjoyed in Congress and was one of only two topics that reached consensus in the entire rulemaking.” - Barmak Nassirian our VP and an official negotiator

[Veterans Education Success @GIBillRights]

Thank you @POTUS for recognizing that we must take a whole child approach to learning, development, and recovery, including attending to relationships and mental health. Here is a great way to connect young people to the caring adults they need: https://t.co/OIskprmWm5

This model is built on public data and can be used by accreditors, state authorizers, and ED program reviews and enforcement TODAY. We also have policy recommendations on Gainful Employment and other #negreg topics.

The six states that piloted the risk model are huge supporters and told us this is a game changer compared to existing financial compliance audits—“like I had blinders on that I’ve finally been able to take off” (6/7)
