Friends, please consider your Friday, June 20, plans made! Let's launch Aspen's LWSD board of directors campaign! Megan's home is not far from mine—so neighbors, feel free to snag a ride with me.
🥳 Smart decision on their part!! Vote for the candidate who is clearly trusted to represent our students and school community with integrity and character.
I'm honored to share that all four current Lake Washington school board members who are not in this race have endorsed my campaign.
Their trust is deeply moving, and I intend to live up to it. I'm going to continue acting to strengthen Lake Washington School District for our kids and our community!
Emily Feiner was forcibly removed from GOP Rep. Mike Lawler's town hall after she asked her so-called "moderate" congressman to stand up to Donald Trump's authoritarian power grab.

This is the best 100-day recap I’ve seen — and it begs the damn question:
Why is his approval rating still 39%? Are folks in a coma?
Trump is requiring the United Kingdom to get rid of laws protecting LGBTQ people before he will agree to a trade deal with them.

... speaking as a parent, as an anti-racist advocate and as an author of children's literature, I urge all those who value literacy and representation to move beyond Seuss and look to BIPOC authors whose work has been marginalized. There is SO MUCH more than Dr. Seuss. ...
✊🏼 We can promote reading while instead being anti-racist. We have nearly a century's worth of children's literature that has been published since those works to choose from. Instead of giving Dr. Seuss and others a pass for "not knowing any better at the time" ...
Many schools & organizations roll out the red carpet in March to honor Dr. Seuss—due to his birthday, March is designated National Reading Month.
‼️Learn about the racism in MANY of Theodor Seuss Geisel's works.‼️

I am still trapped in Meta world because I'm social media editor for my nonprofit over there. And I have to see this sort of garbage.
It's seriously vomit-inducing.
