New Student Visas Dropped 35.6% Last Summer
Amid the Trump administration’s attacks on international students, the number of visas issued to those students ahead of the fall 2025 semester decreased more significantly than experts predicted.
The Trump administration's immigration crackdowns & attacks on colleges & universities are driving away students. This troubling trend means fewer researchers and dangerous ripple effects across America. @afthighered.bsky.social

The Scale of Billionaires’ Campaign Donations is Overwhelming U.S. Politics
One out of every 11,533 donors in the 2024 election was a billionaire.
Yet they were responsible for one out of every 5 dollars given to a politician — with just 300 billionaires spending over $3 billion.

New Report Finds States Have Deprived Schools of Hundreds of Billions of Dollars Since 2016
WASHINGTON—Forty-two states devote a smaller share of their economies to their K-12 public schools than they did 20 years ago.
States have drained K-12 funding and it is hurting students. This new report makes it clear that instead of diverting taxpayer funds to vouchers and privatization, states must redouble their effort and commit to investing in the schools that 90% of kids attend. www.aft.org/press-releas...

‘What is the point?’: Conservatives spar over Education Department breakup
Conservatives are clashing over President Donald Trump’s sprint to dismantle the Education Department amid the effort’s early stumbles.
The federal government says it supports CTE—yet it’s canceled grants for 19 Career-Connected High Schools projects funded in 2024, part of 700+ Education Dept. grants revoked. Cutting career pathways hurts students, schools and our future workforce. www.politico.com/newsletters/...

"In every CBA negotiation, the goal of the league and teams is to divide the players. These negotiations are no different. We remain united and focused on delivering a transformational CBA for all members of this Union, and are committed to negotiating for as long as it takes.
Our Union's nearly unanimous vote in December to authorize us to call a strike, if and when necessary, was not taken lightly. It was made with complete faith and trust in ourselves and our negotiating committee, led by Executive Director Terri Carmichael Jackson and President Nneka Ogwumike, to represent all players as we work to build a W that truly puts players first. Nothing has changed. That decision, and the results of our recent player survey, reaffirm that the current league proposal is not worth taking.
Despite our differences and tough moments, we must make crystal clear that we are focused, we are resolute, and we are together. We want to play basketball in 2026. We want to be in front of our fans playing the game that we love. We will not stop fighting. There is no WNBA without the players."
Pay the players what you owe them, @wnba.com.
Solidarity with WNBPA players in their fight for a fair contract. America’s unions have your backs!

The SAVE America act would make it harder for us to vote.
Congress should make it easier for working people’s voices to be heard, not silencing them. They must reject this voter suppression bill.
