@LitAgentChelsey @LitAgentChelsey are you open for queries this week? If so - what is the best way to send you materials?

How does Pittsburgh Obama 6-12 have 665 empty seats and a "functional capacity" of 1,473 when there are 32 students on their magnet waitlist?

Sign and share the petition. We deserve transparency before they start closing and consolidating our schools!

If more guns and fewer gun laws made us safer, America would be the safest nation in the world.

But 400,000,000 guns in the hands of civilians coupled with weak gun laws have given us a 25 times higher gun homicide rate than any peer nation.

It’s the fucking guns.

(1,19) Now What?

Five years ago, on Valentine’s Day in 2018, my day began like any other day in our home. My wife and I were getting ready for work, and we were sending our forever 14-year-old daughter Jaime and at the time 16-year-old son Jesse off to school.

Attack public education, attack public educators, create crisis of funding, trust and teacher shortage: Push privatization as the solution. It's a plan, y'all.
