The lead sponsor pushing school vouchers in the Tennessee state House @CepickyTn64 says his goal with Tennessee’s public education system is to “throw the whole freaking system in the trash,” according to a recording obtained by NewsChannel 5. newschannel5.com/news/newschann…
TN won't pay teachers their worth, but they can carry a gun. TN won't give teachers school supplies, but they can carry a gun. TN won't let teachers teach accurate history, but they can carry a gun. Arming teachers is insane. Nothing changes until we change the lawmakers.
Meanwhile we have a Governor who's actively trying to siphon taxpayer funding to private, for-profit institutions. Everything is just fine in Tennessee, nothing to see here.

Hey Tennessee supermajority: This is what you're doing to our schoolchildren. Is this what you want? Is this what you think parents want? Or teachers? Please tell us in plain and simple terms WHO exactly wants more guns in schools, other than your NRA campaign donors?

The revised Governor’s budget for vouchers, even though it’s the pared-down Senate version, contains 144 million dollars for year one. Year two is projected to cost 287 million. Where is the additional money coming from? The good people of Tennessee, of course!
Jack John$on @SenJohnson went from acting offended at the mere suggestion he’d support Voucher$ in WilCo & promi$ing to fight them “tooth & nail” to $ponsoring the bill pu$hing for them. What changed for $enator John$on to flip hi$ po$ition 180 degree$ on Voucher$??? Watch thi$.

Helped a girl once outside a HUGE work conference in San Francisco. She was alone & disoriented walking down the crowded sidewalk. My male colleagues were bewildered that I stopped and found her help (police in this case) and I often wonder where her own work colleagues went....
in 2019 @SenJohnson said he supported a voucher program that was “limited in scope and applies only to those failing schools [outside of Williamson County,]” he pledged to “fight tooth and nail” against “anything that would impact [WCS or FSSD].” thenewstn.com/schools/majori…
Are school voucher forces trying to pass their legislation in Tennessee using threats? Here is my preview of tonight’s 6 PM investigation.
In 2022, a local St elected official volunteered (I did not ask) that they intended to endorse my campaign for sch board (I ran as an I). They came back a few wks later and said they would not be able to endorse me, bc the Republican Party would kick them out. Makes sense now..

The August 1's #WCSB ballot is now set after yesterday's primary. Our collective county goal should be to beat our usual sub-20% voter turnout....
Wilco Reps @GinoBulso & @JakeMcCalmonTN are sponsoring HB1605 banning flags in schools “other than the official United States flag and the official Tennessee state flag." The implications of this action is the removal of hundreds of everyday flags within our school facilities.
Leaders take positions.
When you are a school board member for Tennessee’s most successful public school district, but won’t support a resolution asking that private schools that take voucher money be measured by the same standards the district you were elected to “represent” does.
1: What is the ROI on the State of TN’s current approx. 4,200/student investment in Williamson County Schools? A 🧵…. Note: Vouchers would provide 7k per student. Note: WCS counts among its alumni Governor Bill Lee….
When even hyper-local journalists can't cover elections correctly, we're all in trouble: "There are three contested races for the school board on the ballot..." WRONG WRONG WRONG. Literally almost everything about this article is factually incorrect. @TheNews_TN Please correct.

I don't want to use that road so @SenJohnson please see that I get a state voucher to build my own road. I would like the voucher to be worth more than it costs for a public road, I want to choose who has access to it, and I want zero standards or oversite on its construction.

I no longer have to explain why I wouldn’t run as an R for re-election to my school board seat in 2022. (Me, the only candidate in the race who met the party’s voting requirement, including the two candidates who did run as Rs). I can just show this video. newschannel5.com/news/newschann…
The lead sponsor pushing school vouchers in the Tennessee state House @CepickyTn64 says his goal with Tennessee’s public education system is to “throw the whole freaking system in the trash,” according to a recording obtained by NewsChannel 5. newschannel5.com/news/newschann…
Meanwhile, in downtown Nashville, students from Martin Luther King, Jr. Magnet School, Hume Fogg High, Hillsboro High and Belmont University, among others, are walking out at 10 a.m. and meeting for a protest of a Tennessee House Bill to arm teachers.
Loved seeing everyone out and about at the Historic Nolensville Buttercup Festival today! Perfect day for it! 💛 #nolensvilletn #buttercupfestival #jenniferapreaforschoolboard
The public school system isn’t “broken” (especially here in WCS). Here’s a thought: use those public tax dollars to fully fund our public schools and pay our teachers their worth. Pull our state up from the bottom for per student funding and see what happens. #novouchers
BREAKING: 'We're trying to throw the whole freaking system in the trash,' school voucher sponsor says in new recording newschannel5.com/news/newschann…
@cortnye_stone They're trying to force people who can, barely, afford to send their kids to private schools. And let the public schools collapse from low funding. All while giving their rich donors more money. It's sickening and will take a generation (or more) to rebuild public schools.
Private-school voucher bill rolled again in House finance sub and Senate finance. As long as the gov doesn't call a special session, everyone will be happy.
TN won't pay teachers their worth, but they can carry a gun. TN won't give teachers school supplies, but they can carry a gun. TN won't let teachers teach accurate history, but they can carry a gun. Arming teachers is insane. Nothing changes until we change the lawmakers.
If cowards ask you to remove grieving parents so they don’t have to face them, just say no.
If you want to see more neighborhood schools shut down, support charter schools. It’s all part of the privatization playbook.
One devout #Florida #schoolchoice privatizer, two tweets ~5 years apart. What did he think constantly encouraging parents to leave “failing public schools” would result in? Again, I hate to say I told you so but… You did this. Own it.
@JakeMcCalmonTN Did you pray for teachers today? We all need more than thoughts and prayers with the terrible and negligent bills y’all are passing
MORE STEAM!!!
⚡️ HAPPENING NOW: The House voucher bill again will be rolled another week in finance subcommittee. Translation: The votes are still not there. Keep contacting your reps.
Just so everyone is clear. What happened yesterday is exactly why I am running for Congress. Constituent representation is in the trash in TN. 🧵
@MomsDemand @RiseAndShineTN @voices4saferTN @SenAkbari @StudentsDemand @SarahShoop33 @mbalexan @Campbell4TN @AmyGordonBono @tnmedonthehill @yarbro Now we’re discussing the arming teachers bill, the reason this gallery is packed. Majority of Tennesseans oppose this. Teachers oppose this. Parents oppose this. Pure insanity to ask teachers to be police and armed guards
One thing about the so-called “far left” in Tennessee is that it seems to be made up of a lot of sweet women.
Ok, so school boards across Tennesse put forth statements against vouchers. How long until they put forth statements AGAINST teachers carrying guns? We don’t want guns inside our schools! @WCSedu @wcsGolden
I have spent my entire adult life volunteering in public schools. And I haven’t met one teacher who wanted to carry a gun into his/her workplace.
