'That’s the sort of thing you expect to hear during a recession — not when lawmakers have more new revenue than ever. We’re hearing it now because the Senate decided to cut taxes before it figured out how much it needed to fund the essentials.' postandcourier.com/opinion/editor…

What do you call it when someone takes someone else's money openly by force? Robbery. What do you call it when a politician takes someone else's money in taxes and gives it to someone who is more likely to vote for him? Social Justice.

Remembering D-Day

Chanda Jefferson of Fairfield Central is named SC Teacher of the Year at last night’s Teacher of the year banquet. Chanda is a remarkable person that puts her students first! Don’t drive that BMW too fast Chanda.

Quick reminder: since January I was the one advocating for the 5%+2.5+2.5 pay increase over 3 years. Also moving step increases up every year. For most teachers a 16% pay increase. All Dems and some Rep voted against this plan. Just to keep the record accurate.

Miss B and my 7th grade class from yesterday. It was a pleasure working with these exceptional students!

Great day subbing at Myrtle Beach Middle today! Dr. Christy and her staff made me feel at home and the students kept me energized. We reviewed for a state mandated test that I’m trying to eliminate. Ironic

@WatchYourRepsSC @AveryGWilks I’m excited. Getting my lesson plans this afternoon.

Senate Education Committee Chairman Greg Hembree, R-Horry, a critic of the teacher march on the State House tomorrow, just requested a day off from the Senate tomorrow so he can work as a substitute teacher in Horry County schools, replacing a teacher who is marching.
