Trying to make a dollar out of what makes sense.

[The Chronicle of Higher Education @chronicle]

The Board of Trustees has not approved any professors outside of health sciences since January, stoking alarm among faculty. https://t.co/aCYv5BWEop

Anti-DEI bill passes the Louisiana House after a long string of opposition speeches from Black representatives. It passed with 57 votes - four more than needed for approval. #lalege

If @LAGovJeffLandry succeeds in putting more control over insurance rate increases onto Temple, then he can also shift blame for the insurance crisis onto Temple as well (and not have to take any responsibility for it.) #lalege

Really proud of my state senator @BlakeMiguezLA for championing this Michelle Obama initiative.

Took him a long time to come around to an Obama era initiative. But better late than never?

.@LAGovJeffLandry is blaming a lot of other people -- George Soros especially -- for his constitutional amendments failing in March.

Amendment 2 & 3 failed by 30 and 32 points. That means lots of conservative voters also voted against the amendments. #lalege #lagov

2/ The algorithm, called TIGER, focuses on immutable factors from a prisoner’s past — work history, age at first arrest, prior drug convictions — to assess risk of reoffending.

Yet it fails to take into account anything a prisoner has done to rehabilitate themselves.

[ProPublica @propublica]

THREAD: Under a new law, thousands of prisoners in Louisiana have been cut off from ever getting a chance at parole.

Why?

Because an algorithm said so. 1/

Why is the Louisiana AG not already doing the job of ensuring voter fraud is prosecuted?

[Attorney General Liz Murrill @AGLizMurrill]

Great news. The SAVE Act will ensure election integrity by protecting our elections from illegal voters. This simple, common-sense reform garners broad support among Americans. I urge the U.S. Senate to pass it now.

Gotta stop those damn.....ideas?

@tylerlong5 Watched this live. Could use him in RF honestly.

FWIW: The dark money group that is supplying most of the money to @LAGovJeffLandry's Make Louisiana Great Again PAC to help get Amendment 2 passed is the same group who paid for the live tiger from Florida at the LSU/Alabama game. #lalege https://t.co/hAIMhCoalk

First he claimed Louisiana needed sweeping tax reform and legislature passed it.

Then he claimed tax reform would raise revenue and usher in an economic boom for the state.

Now he's claiming Louisiana legislature has no money to give teachers....

The math ain't mathin'

[Governor Jeff Landry @LAGovJeffLandry]

If Amendment 2 does not pass, there is no teacher stipend or $2000 payment to our teachers.

Let me be clear—If Amendment 2 does not pass Saturday, there is no backup stipend.

If it passes, teachers get a PERMANENT pay raise, and will no longer have to go to our legislators year after year to beg for their stipend.

[Julie O'Donoghue @JSODonoghue]

Voters will likely feel differently about that. There are folks who are going to support that type of punishment. Others are not. But we should understand what we are voting for. #lalege https://t.co/CIy6YdyEcm

All 4 minors involved in killing Linda Frickey went to adult prison under current law. One was convicted of murder. 3 others with attempted manslaughter.

The women's prison didn't have space to house the minor girls separate from adults, which is required by law. 1/2 #lalege

When you sabotage your student's higher ed future but call it workforce development.

Students deserve better. Teachers deserve better. Louisiana deserves better.

Today I’m in New Orleans speaking to district leaders from across the country about school voucher threats, rollbacks to federal funding for their communities, and the new order to dismantle the US Dept of Education.
