Just FYI folks, #parents have NEVER been taken out of public education decisions. Not a single time or in any way. Parents merely have to show up, email, call, ask, look at the lessons. Which they are and always have been, FREE TO DO at ANY TIME. #USBE #PublicEducation

Perhaps we should pass real pro-life, pro-family policies like mandatory paid family leave, livable minimum wages, better, universal access to healthcare, and childcare subsidies. We should also address climate change, which poses a far greater threat than a declining birthrate.
Utah is below the population replacement rate of 2.1. We are currently at 1.9 and it’s not good for our long-term outlook. #utpol

We are SO CLOSE! The signature deadline is July 5th and we need 7,000 signatures from registered republicans in CD2 to get Becky on the ballot! A signature doesn’t mean a vote, it just means giving Utahns options for who will represent them at the federal level!

I expect the people in my life to have varying political opinions, but I want to ask everyone to pay attention to who in recent years is asking us to see each other as human and who is asking us to see each other as enemies. The ones who are stoking the anger are not leaders. – at Salt Lake City, UT

Biden closes his Oval Office speech: "I know bipartisanship is hard, and unity is hard, but we can never stop trying."

Last week my child checked a book out from the public library. After looking into it, we decided they were not quite old/mature enough for the book. So the book went back. The end.

I wrote about 2 kids who have barricaded themselves in a bedroom for the last month to defy family court orders forcing them back into the custody of their father, despite DCFS findings that the father sexually abused them 🧵 propublica.org/article/paren…

utah keeps going "two steps forward, five steps back," says Rep. Sandra Hollins, speaking against the right-wing culture war education bill currently being proposed in the utah legislature. #utpol – at Salt Lake City, UT
WATCH: Rep. Sandra Hollins (@SHollinsD21) speaks against Republicans’ extreme culture war attacks on diversity, equity, and inclusion in our state. “I don’t know what to tell my community anymore. I don’t know how to make them feel safe anymore.” #utpol #utleg

My most BYU story I can remember is the boy my sophomore year who was very concerned with how he would explain to our children how I still had a testimony while also being vegetarian. We had never even gone on a date.

🧵Happy Friday. Here are a list of bills that tell teachers we don't trust them, we don't trust what they are teaching, and create extra regulation and added burdens on our public educators. This weekend is a great time to write your legislators. #uted #utpol @utleg 👇👇

Introducing HB295😡 & HB241👎🏼 HB295: Removes requirement for a bachelors degree to become a teacher. HB241: Eliminates direct deposit option for paying teaching association dues. Let EVERYONE know how harmful they are for public school teachers ✊🏼❤️ #utleg #utpol #uted #teach

Sign the petition to make our voices heard. Utahans have voted against vouchers and now our legislators are pushing them through anyway. chng.it/nSNwzGz2pg

Wow, I'm so surprised
Is it really the goal of the Utah legislature to recall & destroy public education? Because that's what the head of the Utah Fits All marketing campaign is telling parents. Since 600K+ students use that system, I think your constituents deserve answers. #utpol #utleg #uted

As a district board member, I believe public dollars must serve the public.I am concerned about desperately needed Special Education dollars going to a voucher program that requires disabled kids to waive their IDEA rights. If you share these concerns, email your Senator. #utpol

This sounds like what is happening in the very red state of Utah, constituents are solidly opposed and our legislators are voting in favor
Republicans have literally ignored their constituents who are overwhelmingly against the voucher bill. I’ve heard from all corners of the state, including bright red Sioux County. Iowans don’t want vouchers. #novouchers

Up all night with a sick toddler, and up early emailing legislators to vote "no" against a school voucher bill. This is motherhood.
