Let’s Block Walk for Lauren. We will be there @LASimmonsTX146 and @JasmineForUS
Mike Miles said the NES model is better. If this were true then why couldn't his team get the STAAR scores above 50%? No grade level could get at LEAST 50% of the students to pass. This is the reason why NWEA is being forced down the throats of #HISD teachers & students.
Houston! Let’s go! I am so excited to be in the field campaigning for Lauren! The Texas State house is desperately in need of someone with a heart for the people & won’t back down from the Radical Republican agenda!

Solidarity with the students, educators, and community members involved in the events on UT-Austin campus yesterday. @aaup_utAustin @TexasAaup
UT Austin published this video for Free Speech Week 6 mos ago. Q: Why can members of the public come to campus at any time and engage in demonstrations A: State law in Texas allows members of the public...to come onto campus and use our common outdoor areas for speech activity

We know our work isn’t done. We know the state will continue to use people as props in their cruel games of political theater. We stand ready to take our fight all the way to the Texas Supreme Court to protect Uplift Harris.
BREAKING: A judge has DENIED Ken Paxton's request for temporary injunction and ruled Harris County's guaranteed income program can go forward. Today is a victory for the 1,900 families living under the crushing weight of poverty that will get a hand-up from Uplift Harris.
Indeed, cry harder.
Thanks so much @indivisibleHOU for helping us reach voters in #HD146! Join us for our next block walk and / or virtual phonebank: LaurenAshleySimmons.com/field Election Day is May 28th and Early Voting is May 20th - May 24th #txlege #reclaimHD146
Together with our #ReproductiveJustice partners and allies leading this work, we will build a world where Black women and all people can get the high-quality care and resources they need to thrive before, during, and after pregnancy. #BlackMaternalHealthWeek #BMHW24
As we close out 2024 Black Maternal Health Week, we ground ourselves in the reality that Black women and birthing people continue to suffer the greatest consequences of our states' public health crises.

Deploying state troopers in riot gear to intimidate peacefully assembled UT students sets a dangerous precedent for First Amendment rights on our college campuses. Regardless of the issue, all students deserve the right to protest.
