Starting Nov 1, millions will lose access to food assistance. 40% of SNAP benefits go to children.

This decision is cruel and avoidable. If you’re able, support the local food banks and community orgs in this post.

1/2 “What is the point of transit-oriented development if it is just development?” said state Rep. Meg Froelich, a Democrat representing Englewood who chairs the House Transportation, Housing and Local Government Committee. “We need reliable transit to have transit-oriented development.”

RTD ridership still falling as state pushes transit-oriented development: ‘We’re not moving the needle’

At a retreat this past summer, a majority of the RTD’s 15 elected board members agreed that boosting ridership is their top priority.

Especially now, as the current administration turns its back on our schools, we must stand up for students, teachers, and the future they deserve.

Messages like this remind me how powerful education truly is. Teaching shapes lives. It matters. My fellow teachers know, we teach for love and it’s no surprise that this made my day!
