@RepFitzgerald @POTUS ✅Fully funds President Trump’s border wall - do NOT want this
✅Increases staffing for ICE and Border Patrol - Do NOT want this or the CONCENTRATION CAMP in FL
✅Restores integrity to Medicaid by ending fraud and abuse - theres already oversight; fraud is a fraction of claims

[MrsLeighMath👩‍🏫 @LeighMath]

@RepFitzgerald @POTUS ✅Makes the Trump Tax Cuts permanent - not for everyone
✅Ends taxes on tips and overtime - for what timeframe?
✅Increases the child time frame?- how about addressing costs of childcare?

[MrsLeighMath👩‍🏫 @LeighMath]

@RepFitzgerald @POTUS Vote FOR your constituents in WI not against them!
Eliminating a tax on silencers remains in the bill and seems fine to you? Increasing the Pentagon budget but cutting CFPB by 70% seems ok too?
Give me a break! Do the right thing and stop backing this horse!

@SenRonJohnson vote no. I think we have differing reasons for doing it, but do it anyway.
This bill hurts Wisconsinites.
Vote no. (See also my voicemail and Threads post and BlueSky post....)

@ScottWalker And by that logic, we wouldn't have Independence Day without the Magna Carta. We wouldn't have Indepence Day without the Big Bang.

FYI….
The average high school kid today has the same level of anxiety as the average psychiatric patient in the early 1950’s.

Spring break, you say?
Guess I'll be grading all the make up work,emailing everyone about various PTA initiatives,and catching up on spring around here.
I'll also spend no time yet somehow still torture local trolls who let me live in their heads rent free for no reason. Cheers!

I CANNOT wait to have this book in my home and read it beautiful cover to cover!

Summer school is another level of teaching for me this year.
For about $100/day, I am working to get approximately 45 students (originally 60, but now in sections of 28 and 17 most days) through Alg 1 for credit recovery.
That's less than $2.50/kid/day. For 22 days.

I laughed, I cried...a spot on depiction of adolescence.

Let's end the 22-23 school year on a high note!!
What's gone well for you this year??

[MrsLeighMath👩‍🏫 @LeighMath]

@_nomadic_soul Providing the experiences through public school that your kids will see and experience in the world is a phenomenal learning opportunity for them. And you can focus on the role of mom and be that safe place for them outside of school. Hang in there, you and they will do great!

Every year as a teacher and a org president I am thrilled to see HS kids graduate full of amazing promise and positivity and drive.
I cannot wait until those "kids" (my first students are in their 30s now) run the world!
Teenagers are amazing people!

[MrsLeighMath👩‍🏫 @LeighMath]

Took 3 years, but my number came up.
Thankfully I have a student T who could take over and keep everything moving forward in class. Even more thankful, the fam has avoided it this round! I don't wish the aches and fevers on anyone. Now to kick the congestion.
Back at it Monday!

[MrsLeighMath👩‍🏫 @LeighMath]

Thank you @quintabrunson this week's @AbbottElemABC was SO relatable and authentic!
I have been Janine, and I've been Barbara. Schementi's pep talk to Gregory...GOLD! Every teacher has been through all of this, day after day, year after year.

30 infants die and we recall 4.7 mil Rock ‘n Play Sleepers.

2 toddlers die and we recall 3.2 mil Calico Critters toys.

2 infants die and we recall so much formula that the US goes into shortage.

Last year, over 6,000 children were injured by gun violence.

Nothing. Nada.

[Sari Beth Rosenberg @saribethrose]

Wokeness isn’t killing kids in school.

Books aren’t killing kids in school.

Lessons about slavery & racism aren’t killing kids in school.

Learning about gay & queer people isn’t killing kids in school.

Drag Queen Story Hours aren’t killing kids in school.

Guns are!

[MrsLeighMath👩‍🏫 @LeighMath]

This is incredibly dumb.

Administrators at a Wisconsin elementary school stopped a first-grade class from performing a Miley Cyrus and Dolly Parton duet promoting LGBTQ acceptance because the song "could be perceived as controversial." https://t.co/3lEQyWgUlo

[Greg Greene @ggreeneva]

Things that did _not_ kill kids today:

- a renaissance sculpture
- a film about Ruby Bridges
- drag queen story time
- the word ‘tampon’
- critical race theory
- woke banks
- saying that Rosa Parks was Black
- gender-affirming care
- ‘The Bluest Eye’

What did:

-an AR-f––ing-15

[MrsLeighMath👩‍🏫 @LeighMath]

@RepFitzgerald Show your support for parents by protecting kids from gun deaths. Firearms are now the leading cause of death in kids and teens, surpassing cars, which we all sorts of safety laws about. Support the assault weapon ban instead of this redundant garbage.
