So this is a great time to contact your Member of Congress.
The termination of 850 Indian Health Service physicians, nurses, and dentists will have a grave impact on access to care for millions of Native Americans.
Upholding our treaty obligations is not optional.
If you should happen to want to contact Ken Paxton to let him know your views on section 504…

17 state Attorneys General are suing to end 504. You know, the program that provides support for students who have a disability. Like asthma or diabetes or dyslexia. Or kids who have hearing loss or a vision loss. Sure. That seems like something we should toss out. 🤦🏻♀️
Texas House Representative Andy Hopper introduced bill 2657 which would dismantle the Texas Education Agency. He is NOT interested in improving public education. Does TEA need an overhaul? Probably. Are there problems that need to be addressed? Definitely. But, throwing TEA away won’t fix anything.
You have to listen to her. She is brilliant.
You know, I really hoped we would just see a lot of golfing interrupted by middle of the night nonsense covfefe tweets. Like last time. Boy was I wrong.

❄️❄️❄️ Hope all y’all North Texans already have your milk, bread and chili fixins. Because the shelves in the store are a bit bare. ❄️❄️❄️

Fall is finally falling in north Texas.

Delay and deny? Hmmmm. Shouldn’t take a crack team of investigators to figure that one out.
Who needs pumpkin spice when you have persimmons!
Book challenge with a twist: I love Barbara Kingsolver. She digs deep into our troubled society whether it’s the opioid crisis, the broken foster home system or all the things we do wrong when we assume our way is the way and try to force it on others. 18 and 19/20
There are things to be learned from watching South Korea
I feel your pain! Packing up my parents house. Who ARE these people who saved such random things? And, yes, I also have some Hummel figurines to get rid of. 🙄
Every time I read about banning books, I think of this:
Reading a book with a gay character will not make you gay any more than reading a book about Einstein will make you a genius.
If you're afraid that books might change someone's thinking, you're not afraid of books — you're afraid of thinking.
Book challenge with a twist: the way the author weaves her Indigenous culture into her scientific background is inspirational. I’ll be embracing the 3 sisters in my garden this summer! 17/20
