Do I have the largest teacher following on this platform in the Michigan Senate?
Yes, I do.
That’s why I’ll take a moment to point out to Michigan teachers that every senator in green voted “yes” just now to reform the failed Snyder-era teacher evaluation mandates — all Democrats. Every senator in red voted “no” — all Republicans.
Share widely and remember their names.
Former President Trump has raised the First Amendment free speech right to make claims about the 2020 election, but prosecutors are likely to say these claims are lies that are *not* protected.

Today marks five years since the school shooting at Parkland - 17 killed, 17 injured.
Since that time, until tonight's incident at Michigan State University, there have been 2,740 mass shootings with over 14,000 individuals either shot or killed in the past five years.
No one is talking about the fact that the teacher who was shot by the 6 year old, Abigail Zwerner, is still in the hospital or that she got her students out of the classroom after she was shot and with life-threatening injuries or that the school was warned the child had a gun.
Pay as much attention to 25 year old Abby Zwerner as we did to Damar Hamlin after his heart stopped on Monday night. Abby, from Virginia, is a first grade teacher shot by a 6-year-old student in her classroom. She's in critical condition. You read it right. Shot by a 6 year old.
I don’t care what you think of Gen Z I am proud of us. Every single day we are working at a scale like few times before in our history to create a more perfect union for future generations- not because we want to but because we have to.
This constitutional amendment allows the people of Michigan to protect their reproductive freedom with their vote this November.
Everyone deserves access to abortion and other reproductive care — without political interference. https://t.co/0na5VV65if
Hi @repboebert 👋 I’m Ingham County Clerk Barb Byrum (from Michigan). I saw today that you are “tired” of the separation of church & state. It’s been a long few years & we are all tired, but I thought, since you were sharing, I would tell you a little about why I am tired.🧵

"Why are we here?" Sen. Murphy presses fellow senators in emotional speech after Texas elementary school shooting.

From @APStylebook today: “Good style favors short words, short sentences, short paragraphs, short stories." That's what the Instructions for Correspondents of The Associated Press said in 1911. We agree. #mc200#mc300#mc499

Guess which one the Florida legislature is working on banning.
