NAFIS is excited to welcome Cherise Imai as our next Executive Director! With nearly 30 years of experience in education policy and advocacy, she brings deep expertise and a strong commitment to federally impacted schools. nafisdc.org/wp-content/upl…
We love when we have visitors! Today, we welcomed our friends (and office building neighbors) from @NAFISschools to our #CSPAN offices for a tour of our newsroom and studio and a robust discussion about each of our organizations' educational offerings.
NAFIS strongly opposes this executive order and any efforts to dismantle the U.S. Department of Education, transfer #ImpactAid to another department, or decrease funding for federally impacted school districts.

There's been confusion about whether #ImpactAid & other ed programs would be affected by the OMB directive freezing federal grant funding this week. Today, OMB rescinded that directive - so no impact on the program. NAFIS continues to monitor the situation wapo.st/4jA0TMM
Voters did not vote to cut education funding - poll after poll shows the public supports investments in education. This CNN video makes the case: cnn.com/2025/01/19/us/…

Congratulations to @SenJohnThune on being elected Senate Majority Leader! NAFIS appreciates his longstanding support of #ImpactAid and looks forward to continuing to work with him to strengthen the program and advance student success. nafisdc.org/wp-content/upl…
The FY 2024 #ImpactAid Payments Overview is here! Our new publications show how funds were distributed to 1,082 school districts serving ~8M students across the country. Check out the infographic and reports nafisdc.org/impact-aid-res…
The recently-adopted #Ohio House and Senate district maps have now received an official challenge with the Ohio Supreme Court. buff.ly/3LNaRuU
A bill in #RhodeIsland cap the maximum payment for a 30-day supply of #insulin administration and #glucose monitoring equipment to $25 or for equipment designed to last more than 30 days without any deductible. buff.ly/3oYYUKx
#ICYMI: In late April 2023, #Florida lawmakers overwhelmingly passed HB 657, allowing for automated speed enforcement in school zones. buff.ly/3M8jIqr
Many thanks to the American Red Cross for inviting DMGS’ Jayson Schimmenti and John Zang to present at their Advocacy Training Day in DC today!
.@cspan's #HouseSpeaker vote coverage is getting kudos. FYI: Our non-profit network doesn't get a dime of gov $$. Sadly, we're not avail to all pay TV customers, importantly @YouTubeTV and @hulu. Please help convince them to add C-SPAN to their lineups by liking and retweeting.
Never too cold for a #HillDay with Congressional staff in DC! 🗣️
US Energy Sec. Jennifer Granholm will soon hold an emergency meeting w/ leading #energy executives to discuss steps to increase crude oil production, refinery capacity & the production of #gasoline, #diesel & jet fuel, all with the aim of reducing prices. rbnenergy.com/meet-in-the-mi…
#ICYMI @Chevron CEO Mike Wirth states on @FoxBusiness that there may never be another oil refinery built in the U.S., citing the federal government’s energy policies – inlcuding the #RFS – that have already forced countless refinery closures (CC: @WHCOS) foxbusiness.com/markets/chevro…
NEW from @steelworkers on EPA's biofuel mandate: "High & fluctuating RIN prices jeopardize our members’ jobs, which is why the union submitted comments attesting to the undue burden this market puts on workers and their employers. Unfortunately, @EPA failed to heed our warning.”
#RINs — now at $1.67 — rise 30 cents on rumors the Biden Administration will not provide #RFS relief, continuing upward pressure on #gasprices.

As Americans pay record high gas prices, President Biden is considering raising the Renewable Fuel Standard mandates. This will cost Americans even more when they fill up their tanks and continue to drive up food costs.
