I’ll always defend every parent’s right to decide what’s best for their own child—but that right doesn’t extend to imposing those decisions on other families’ children. 📚 Having the right to decide is one of the core principals of our American society.
District 2 is growing, and fast! 🏗️ 🍎 As we close the first month of the new year, I wanted to share these awesome photos from the dedication of @ihs_ocps, where we ceremonially opened the campus to the community!
