NJHSD supports the Governor’s mandate in the name of safety, factuality, and science. If parents want to keep children in schools, basic precautions are the only path forward. Sign our petition to the NJ Legislature here: https://t.co/ZsjouZHX3g (4/4)

COVID-19 safety precautions are under attack by trucker and now-State Senator Edward Durr (R-3). Durr has introduced legislation that would require NJ schools to obtain approval from parents before mandating that children wear masks, effectively making masks optional. (1/4)

[NJ High School Democrats @njhsdems]

A Monmouth University poll from the top of the school year found that 69% of parents—and 67% of all voters—support Governor Murphy’s mask mandate. And, in Arizona, during Spring–Summer 2021, outbreaks were about 3.5x more likely in schools without mask mandates. (3/4)

[Colorado High School Democrats @cohsdems]

Ten are dead and our entire state is mourning. Though we pray for those innocent lives cut down by indiscriminate violence, we must also remember the heroes of today. Officer Eric Talley, one of the first on scene mere minutes after the first shots rang out, lost his life...

Our virtual chapter is now open to all! This is a great opportunity to join NJHSD, come to our events, and be a part of our political work, especially if you don’t have a chapter in your area.

[Andrew Desiderio @AndrewDesiderio]

McConnell is tearing into Trump. He says Trump promoted “conspiracy theories” because he was “angry” he lost the election. He says Trump committed a “dereliction of duty” and is “practically and morally responsible for provoking the events.”

Still, he voted to acquit

43 Republican Senators chose travesty and iniustice over accountability.
43 Republicans chose to uphold white supremacy over our democracy.
43 Republicans are complicit in the insurrection.

There is no time to waste when it comes to tackling the crises we face. That's why today, I am heading to the Oval Office to get right to work delivering bold action and immediate relief for American families.

Today, the work begins.

On MLK Day this year, we must stay faithful to the ideals of equality, justice, and compassion Martin Luther King Jr. championed. There is much to be done to heal this nation and provide for all of its communities. We must continue on that activist path, honoring MLK’s legacy.
