THREAD: This week, Congress sent a bill to the president’s desk that I can almost guarantee you haven’t heard of. How can I be sure? **Not a single article has been written about it by any news outlet, anywhere**

1/ A had recent chilling conversation with a group of teenagers and I want to tell you about it. They were upset by my bill to ban social media's use of algorithmic boosting to teens. This practice is used to curate (often harmful) content to keep kids addicted to screens.

John Fetterman isn't the first Senator to suffer from depression. But he's probably the first to publicly acknowledge he's getting treatment for it.

A friendly reminder that for the next 48 hours no pundit or pollster knows anything about what’s about to happen. Go read a book or binge Netflix instead. But first: Vote.

Proud to be one of the more than 700 organizations and @hvworks to call on #Congress to reauthorize and expand funding for critical home visiting services. bit.ly/3RHYOzU #MIECHV

Stop asking school districts how many vacancies they have. Start asking them how many of their slots are filled by a fully certified educator. If I go to the dentist and my dentist is unavailable I don’t seek out <insert any other profession> to give me a root canal.

Hi! For @TeenVogue I’m writing about the US teacher shortage; if you are a teacher who has left your job due to lack of resources or if your school/district is struggling b/c of so many vacancies, I’d love to talk! I can protect your identity, please share & dm me!!

@NatlPAT is truly saddened to learn of the passing of Rep. Jackie Walorski and her two aides, Zachary Potts and Emma Thompson. Rep. Walorski was a true champion for home visiting. Thoughts are with the families of Rep. Walorski, Zachary Potts, Emma Thompson, and all her staff.

As I get ready for week 2 of the Parkland shooting trial and sitting through details of how Jaime and 16 others were murdered, I hope you take a minute to watch this from @Eleven_Films. It should be watched by everyone. Thank you @SRuhle for showing this.
