The President does not have authority to unilaterally dismantle the Department of Education.
 
It’s blatantly unconstitutional & jeopardizes the education of an entire generation of children.
 
As the President turns his back on America’s children, we’ll continue to fight to protect their futures.

I’m excited to share that I’ve been published in the National Civic Review, where I discuss how national service programs like Peace Corps and AmeriCorps are more than simply feel-good volunteerism — they’re vital infrastructure for maintaining a functioning democracy in the 21st century. A quick 🧵:

Today, little kids at Annunciation Catholic School were forced into a club that no child should ever join. It’s a fucked up club, and it’s growing because our so-called leaders refuse to act.

Nope, it's not a headline from @theonion.com.

If lawmakers want kids off #TikTok, let’s give them something better to do.

It’s the best offline program you've never heard of.

As a new #AmeriCorps program year kicks off, we're feeling so inspired by the hundreds of organizations accepting grants -- stepping up not just to strengthen communities, but to strengthen and save AmeriCorps by doing so.

We're stronger than a #DOGE termination letter. #nationalservice

President Trump’s efforts to target social safety net programs and vulnerable communities won’t save money, it’ll cost states millions in downstream impacts — from increased emergency room visits and homelessness to lost productivity.
 
It won’t just harm undocumented families. It’ll hurt everyone.

This afternoon, the Trump administration officially shut down the LGBTQ Youth Specialized Services program within the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. The program allowed callers under 25 to speak with counselors trained to support LGBTQ youth, an option that has now been eliminated.
