The Chicago Teachers Union is listed as a sponsor for yet another political activist cause—this time, a “Hands Off Iran and Lebanon” protest. They join radical, antisemitic groups like Boycott, Divest, Sanction (BDS), the Palestinian Youth Movement, and CAIR. jns.org/chicago-teache…

Do school choice programs only help the families who use them? This week on Freedom to Learn, @schoolchoicenow Senior Fellow Patrick Graff (@ParthurGraff) breaks down his latest study, revealing how school choice benefits public school students, too.

Graduate students at George Washington University offer moral support to those "horrified" by Iran's fight for freedom. DFI Senior Fellow @JayPGreene uncovers campus radicalism perpetuated by graduate student unions in this new report: dfipolicy.org/radicalism-of-…
