A Parent of CPS kids
@AcpsParent
I'm a minority parent of elementary aged kids at a CPS school. Not a part of CPS or CTU. I fight gaslighting with data. This is my alt account

When you’re paid by a billionaire, you only have to show when he tells you to.

Lame once more: Aldermen just failed to make quorum AGAIN — this time for a Chicago Public Schools-focused meeting. Dr. Macquline King — who is expected to be made permanent CPS CEO later today — was ready to answer questions. But aldermen didn’t show up, second time in a row.



We worked hard, organized, and built a big coalition, but we couldn’t compete with the millions of dollars from Trump-aligned super PACs in this race. We may have lost this battle, but we're going to keep fighting until we beat Trump and build a better world that we know is possible. Congratulations, Commissioner Miller, on your victory. I look forward to working with you to fight on behalf of the communities of the 2nd District.

Congressman @RepMikeQuigley to endorse @RobinLynneKelly in high-profile US Senate race.

I learned this morning that I received Rev. Jesse Jackson's personal endorsement before he passed. I'm deeply moved and honored to have his trust and support, and I will work day and night to carry on his legacy for the people of Illinois when I get to the United States Senate.
