Republican Mayor of Mesa, Arizona: I am a lifelong Republican. I do not recognize my own party. The Republican Party has been taken over by extremists. I have something to say to those of us who are in the middle. You don’t owe a damn thing to that party. You don’t owe anything to a party that is out of touch and hellbent on taking us backward. You owe no displaced loyalty to a candidate who is morally and ethically bankrupt. In the spirit of the great Senator John McCain, please join me in putting country over party, stopping Donald Trump, protecting the rule of law, protecting our Constitution, and protecting democracy by voting for Kamala Harris

I have never seen anything like this.
Maricopa County's top prosecutor sends cease-and-desist letter to Trumpist candidate for Maricopa County Board: Stop telling people to steal our pens.
Please stop saying that we need to increase teacher salaries in order “recruit the best and brightest” as if the best and brightest are not currently teaching.
We need to increase teacher salaries because those currently teaching deserve and earned it.
I just joined @momsdemand & @everytown to send an urgent message demanding our U.S. Senators take bold action by passing gun safety legislation. We cannot wait for another mass shooting. Send your message now >> https://t.co/TUuL3jX2cG
she passed away with children in her arms trying to protect them, those weren’t just her students they were her kids as well, she was teacher of the year, and was loved by so many, she’s gone but the world will never forget her name
My tia did not make it, she sacrificed herself protecting the kids in her classroom, i beg of you to keep my family including all of her family in y’all’s prayers , IRMA GARCIA IS HER NAME and she died a HERO. she was loved by many and will truly be missed.
I can't believe I have to say this, but:
I would trust the people [teachers] who refuse to even consider carrying a gun or putting a gun near children a lot more than the people who are suggesting that we put guns in the hands of teachers and add armed guards to schools.
This thread will be dedicated to the victims of the mass shooting in Uvalde, Texas.
As a parent, my heart is broken seeing these faces and their ages.
My condolences to their families during this difficult time 🙏🏻

There is NEVER a time when we should be discussing if we should arm teachers. And if that time ever comes, we should not be reevaluating how we save our schools, we should be reevaluating how we save our society. #teachers
Students are more than test scores. Teachers are people. We cannot continue to place the burden of responsibility on our schools to solve society’s problems. We need to give them the supports they so desperately need. Now more than ever. They deserve better. We all do.
