Rep. Williams puts arming teachers bill on next calendar.
My town has a gas station, a bar, and three smoke shops. We don’t have anywhere to buy a gallon of milk, yet school choice grifters want y’all to think someone will open up a private school in my area? Lol. They could just tell the truth — they have defunded our public school.
TN students marched to the State Capitol today to protest HB1202- the bill to arm teachers, and call for gun safety legislation
🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨 It’s time to activate, Tennessee. Let lawmakers know you OPPOSE arming teachers. @MomsDemand #TNLeg
JUST NOW— NASHVILLE STUDENTS WALK OUT: “Arming teachers won’t solve schools shootings. We can’t shoot our way out of gun violence.” Massive protest at the Capitol against arming teachers. It passed the senate. @RyanWilliamsTN has it in the house. @WilliamLamberth @CSexton25
Hundreds of Nashville high schoolers have gathered on the steps of the Tennessee Capitol to protest a bill that would allow teachers to carry concealed handguns. The measure would not require schools to disclose who is carrying.
Imagine finishing a Rubik's Cube in less than four seconds 😳 (via @maxfast23)

FLs $8K vouchers led school to increase tuition to $10-12K “Instead of paying $6,000 per child, families at the sch who are St. Paul parish members will now be charged $10,000 per child. Nonmembers will be charged $12,000 per child, instead of $7,000.” tampabay.com/news/education…

Follow my work at: https://t.co/zSrCNbH2TCAn utterly historic victory for the working class. Tennessee is shining bright tonight. We are in a new era. Congratulations to the courageous workers in Chattanooga and the entire @UAW. Absolutely heroic. Solidarity IS the strategy - across the South, and all over the country.
BREAKING: Over 4,000 Volkswagen workers in Tennessee just joined the @UAW in a landslide. They’re the first American workers to win a union at a non-union car company in decades. This historic victory will change the auto industry, and the future of American labor.
My town has a gas station, a bar, and three smoke shops. We don’t have anywhere to buy a gallon of milk, yet school choice grifters want y’all to think someone will open up a private school in my area? Lol. They could just tell the truth — they have defunded our public school.
Watching history tonight in Chattanooga, as Volkswagen workers voted in a landslide to join the @UAW. Despite pressure from Gov. Lee, this is the first auto plant in the South to unionize since the 1940s. This incredible victory for labor will transform Tennessee and the South!
Seeing a former disability advocate turn on the disability community is hard to swallow. Extremely disappointing.

@RogerWallaceTX Had to be something that made her change her mind, it sure wasn’t the merits of the policy, it’s failed in every state.
@VoteGloriaJ You think you're kidding about the gold bars.
My opponent opposed allowing Medicare to negotiate lower drug prices and capping insulin prices at $35 per month for our seniors. Marsha has no plans to look out for our seniors — but then again, she never has!
Vouchers are in trouble folks, this means we need you now more than ever—MAKE YOURSELF KNOWN! Show up, email, or call your rep and tell them vouchers are a scam and now you know that they know it too and they admit they are “throwing public education in the trash.”
BREAKING: 'We're trying to throw the whole freaking system in the trash,' school voucher sponsor says in new recording newschannel5.com/news/newschann…
So inspired by the deep love and courage of former Congresswoman @GabbyGiffords. Despite being nearly assassinated in 2011, she has persisted in trying to end the epidemic of gun violence. This was needed grounding as we brace for an onslaught of gun extremist bills next week.
It’s amazing what they say to folks behind closed doors, then they come to committee or the House floor and lie straight to 7 million Tennesseans without missing a beat.
🚨QUIET PART OUT LOUD: “We’re trying to throw the whole freaking (public ed) system in the trash… the pitfalls of vouchers is well documented… senate/guv versions will cost A BILLION in 2 years…” Voucher sponsor @CepickyTn64 gives the scam away. FULL: newschannel5.com/news/newschann…

JUST NOW— NASHVILLE STUDENTS WALK OUT: “Arming teachers won’t solve schools shootings. We can’t shoot our way out of gun violence.” Massive protest at the Capitol against arming teachers. It passed the senate. @RyanWilliamsTN has it in the house. @WilliamLamberth @CSexton25
How about the people’s business be conducted somewhere the people can hear the debate?
BREAKING: Gov. Bill Lee called Tennessee legislative leaders to his office to discuss compromises on voucher expansion and F&E. Senate leadership showed up, but moments later, everyone left the Gov's office and they changed venues. (I think we may be to blame for that.) @NC5
I’m cautiously optimistic, but don’t stop calling and emailing!
🚨 TENNESSEE UPDATE: Governor Lee’s voucher scam is reportedly dead Salute to all the parents, teachers, superintendents who spoke up. And the school boards and local officials who passed resolutions. You did it. You protected public schools. Give yourselves a hand 👏🏽
This #TaxDay, let's remember that Marsha voted to add $1.9 trillion to the national debt for "tax cuts" that left hardworking Americans paying more than our fair share while the ultra-wealthy and big corporations reaped the benefits.
We all want to promote a healthier Tennessee, but we can’t do that if we aren’t expanding Medicaid so people can see a physician, or expanding SNAP benefits so families in need have access to healthier food options.
