We are saddened by the passing of President Jimmy Carter, who contributed to the Voyager Golden Record currently traveling through interstellar space.
Carter's message of peace continues to reach across the "vast and awesome universe."

Jimmy Carter, former US president who was committed to human rights, has died. He was 100 years old.
Carter set a powerful example for world leaders to make human rights a priority, and he continued to fight for human rights after he left office.

When I look at Jimmy Carter, I see a man not only for our times, but for all times. A man who embodied the most fundamental human values we can never let slip away.
And while we may never see his likes again, we would all do well to try to be a little more like Jimmy Carter.

Think about this next time @GovAbbott offers any praise for Texas public school teachers...
Consider your most stressful day/week as a public school educator, then reflect on the following:
(1) Texas public school employees are tired, burned out, underappreciated, and many work in underresourced schools.
(2) Texas teachers busted their rears and sacrificed their own families by helping our students and communities endure a global pandemic.
THEN...
(3) Texas teachers were used as fodder as the Governor told voters they were "woke" and that they teach kids to "hate America."
AND...
(4) Texas ranks in the bottom 10 states in per-student funding.
(5) Texas' $32.7 billion surplus is the size of the budget of South Carolina.
FINALLY...
(6) Policymakers could not find it within themselves to provide teachers with any raise, nor could they find it within themselves to increase school funding...due to their insistence on tying funding to vouchers.
These people MUST be held accountable. The 2023/24 school year should not start until we: (a) increase teacher pay; and (b) increase school funding.
PERIOD.
