A federal grand jury indicted Trump, who incited an insurrection, for his attempts to overturn the results of the 2020 election. Join me & sign the petition to demand that the Republican National Committee remove Trump from the GOP debate NOW! 👇 sign.moveon.org/petitions/remo…

Now the poem that Amanda Gorman read at President Biden’s inauguration, entitled “The Hill We Climb,” has been banned from curriculum through 5th grade in Miami-Dade County, for not being suitable for elementary students. For those who listened to the poem, you would know the the poem was a lecture on peace, love, unity, and freedom. This is why laws banning critical race theory from schools are a problem. People begin categorizing anything that talks about race as falling into the realm of CRT. Or they use the law to justify removing books and curriculum that can teach real history. This isn’t free speech. This is using the law to chill the free speech of others, in my opinion.

This cause is close to my heart - please sign: sign.moveon.org/petitions/inve…

ILA stands with @UABookBans against #bookbans and #censorship. As stated in ILA’s #RightsToRead, children have the right to choose what they read. Our students deserve better than limited book access and empty library shelves. #unitedagainstbookbans bit.ly/ILA_UnitedAgai…
