@NEISD Great job NEISD board... I am so happy to hear this. Also, as a parent of a school-aged child, I appreciate what the educators and support staff do everyday for our children.

#NEISDcares --The NEISD Board approved a resolution allowing the District to pay all hourly and salary employees during this emergency closure even if they are working from home due to social distancing recommendations because of COVID-19.

Ted Koppel called Hannity bad for America to his face.

So society’s *real* key workers have just been revealed.
Not the bankers. Not the traders. Not the elite hedge fund managers.
It’s the nurses. The doctors. The delivery drivers. The carers. The porters. The teachers. The shelf stackers. The check out staff.

This case could have catastrophic consequences for LGBTQ+ people. The only thing that should matter is whether parents can provide a safe and loving home for their children—and in a Warren administration, that’s the only thing that will. buzzfeednews.com/article/domini…

The federal minimum wage:
2009: $7.25/hour
2020: $7.25/hour
That’s unconscionable. The House voted to raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour and it’s time the Senate does the same.

Our gun violence epidemic is a public health emergency—and we need to make big, structural changes if we want to end it. So today, I introduced the #EndGunViolenceBill in the Senate to confront this crisis head on. bostonglobe.com/2020/01/30/nat…

Texas told cities they couldn’t fund abortion providers. So Austin is funding abortion access instead.
Now, Austin is the first city in the nation to approve public funding to help women better access abortion.

Sad to see so many San Antonians as 2019 maximum donors to Donald Trump — the owner of @BillMillerBarBQ, owner of the @HistoricPearl, realtor Phyllis Browning, etc.
Their contributions are fueling a campaign of hate that labels Hispanic immigrants as ‘invaders.’

I’ve got a message for the Trump administration: When you physically abuse immigrants, sexually abuse immigrants, or refuse to supply immigrants with the medical care that they need, you break the law of the United States of America.

Kamala Harris@KamalaHarris
When elected president, I will give Congress 100 days to put a gun safety bill on my desk for signature. And if they don’t, I will take executive action. I’ve seen too many autopsy photos and hugged too many mothers of homicide victims to not take action. Enough.
