@drgenevievers Hi, Jen. Sorry to contact you this way, but I can’t send you a PM without paying for the blue check. I’m a reporter with The Associated Press. Would you reach out to me at mbeck@ap.org ? I’m working on a story Nebraska’a competing abortion initiatives and petition circulators.

You can't spell #cheAP without @AP! Our rank-and-file are demanding fair pay for all we do. Will Executive Editor @JuliePace and CEO Daisy Veerasingham publicly release their compensation packages and take pay cuts? #AskAP

At AP, employee wages need to be competitive to keep us strong. Setting minimum pay for top-scale employees at $75K is anything but. We can and must do better #FairAPcontract @APNewsGuild

Year 1: Done. But still no #fairAPcontract. We are seeking higher pay, more parental leave + vacation benefits, stronger reproductive health care policies & more. We've been negotiating with @AP for 365 days — we deserve better. #WeAreAP

@EricYarwood @SeeingRedNE @3NewsNowOmaha It most certainly is not an AP story. The only AP story mentioning this movie is a weekly box office ticket sales report, which notes the “pay it forward” scheme.

@SeeingRedNE @3NewsNowOmaha It's an AP story they pulled off the feed. I've seen the same article on other sources. I call it lazy over anything else.

Why is @3NewsNowOmaha promoting this fake conspiracy theory? The article they ran says it is “based on a true story”. That is a lie. This is not only irresponsible journalism, it is unethical and dangerous.

From a Teacher ❤️ ✏️ Today I was running low on pencils so I asked all of my kids to pull out any of my pencils that they had in their desks. I had one student ask me if he could keep his pencils that his mom gave him for school. Of course, I said yes. He then said, “well, I guess I’ll give you a few so my classmates can have them too.” I thought nothing of it and took the pencils that he handed me. When I was sharpening them, I noticed writing on a few of them. I then realized that my student’s mother took the time to write on his pencils. I asked him if he would mind showing me the rest of them. What I read melted my heart: - You are so talented. - This will be a great year. - You are creative. - You are phenomenal. - Never give up. - You can do this. - You are knowledgeable. - You are a math whiz. - You are intelligent. - Proud of you everyday. - I love you. - You have a brilliant mind. - You are wonderful. - You are a problem solver. - Follow your dreams. - You are perfect. - I am proud of you. - You will change the world. - You are amazing. - You are the best. - You are important. -This probably took his mom a few minutes to do yet it lit up his whole day at school. He wasn’t embarrassed that his mom wrote on his pencils. Thanks to his mom, he was reminded of his self worth and wanted to share the same feeling with his classmates. - THESE are the things that we should be reminding our kids (both parents AND teachers). Imagine the look on a child’s face when they are reminded that they are important, talented, loved, knowledgeable and so much more. - Help them know that someone believes in them and is proud of them in everything they do. Even if you think it is cheesy or you don’t have enough time or that you will have little impact, remember that you may be the only one telling and reminding them these things and EVERY kid needs to know their value. This is why I teach. ❤️❤💜💜😀⭐
