Thirteen years ago, my administration acted to protect young people who were American in every single way but one: on paper.  DACA was an example of how we can be a nation of immigrants and a nation of laws. And it’s an example worth remembering today, when families with similar backgrounds who just want to live, work, and support their communities, are being demonized and treated as enemies.  We can fix our broken immigration system while still recognizing our common humanity and treating each other with dignity and respect. In fact, it’s the only way we ever will.

I am so thankful our community passed the @MCCSC_EDU forward thinking and revolutionary referendum to fund PreK and remove financial barriers for AP exams and school supplies! #MCCSCStrong! #I💙💛MCCSC

Pre-Keynote @SolutionTree video presentation, Exploration Into AI: Advantages of Artificial Intelligence in the Classroom, is absolutely fascinating . . & a little unsettling.

Can’t wait to see @mikemattos65 kick it off tomorrow morning! He and @newfrontier21 likely have no idea how deeply they have impacted my leadership journey. #atplc

This is leadership. @NC_Governor 👊 His message is Indiana’s reality as well. It’s time for a common sense Hoosier governor who was an educator and will inform all. Kids, parents and communities deserve to know what our neighborhood public schools are facing. #savepublicschs
The GOP legislature is planning to choke the life out of public education, and you need to know what’s happening. Watch Gov. Cooper's special address on public education.

The current time is 2:45, Indiana tax payers, do you know where your legislators are? If so, please tell them recess is over and send them back to the chamber. #165minuterecessandcounting

The House recessed for a 70 minute lunch at noon. It’s nearly 2 and the chamber is still mostly empty. #waitingforbussesofteacherstoleave #beaccountable
