@GeneforTexas : "They use hate and fear to divide us"

@MikeFloydTX "Theres a fight in every single level, and we all have to be united" -Regarding immigration

@GeneforTexas's response to immigration education in Texas schools: We need to have teachers, people who are well-versed in this topic educating students, not politicians

After a jam-packed day full of workshops, debates and vacation planning, who's ready for a field trip? #yelsyouthsummit

Day 2 was great! Our students had lots of fun meeting with The Moth, immigration panelists, and other young leaders!

Day one of the #yelsyouthsummit is done!!! We are looking forward to seeing y'all tomorrow

A week ago some of our students got to sit down and talk with the Parkland students over lunch to discuss issues affecting Houston.

We are 6 days away from our Youth Summit! We are super excited to meet all of you!
