Today, Linda McMahon:
❌ Pledged to dismantle the U.S. Dept. of Education, and
❌ Promised to support vouchers, stripping resources from 90% of U.S. students.
Our students deserve an education secretary who will fight for them, not gut public schools to pay for tax cuts for billionaires.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too.

Millions of students rely on programs run by the Department of Education. Eliminating it would be equivalent to "giving up on our future," says @neapresident.bsky.social Becky Pringle.
We need leaders who will stand up for students—not dismantle the very systems that support them.
