14,000 Texas public school students infected with Covid in one week. ONE WEEK. Please. Call your school board trustees. Urge them to follow the science and require masks in schools to keep kids safe. Find the contact info for your trustees here: https://t.co/dll9TyXwU4 https://t.co/FZSNkE209E

RT @mattadk: @EllenTroxclair AISD cumulative cases with masks: 218 My ISD (Frisco) without masks: 668 (and hasn’t been updated in 2 days since @friscoisd can’t be bothered). Weird that an ISD with 10,000+ more students could have so fewer cases.

My thoughts are with the families of the U.S. service members killed in the line of duty in Afghanistan. This is a tragic day for our country, a tragic day for Afghanistan.

Midland’s kids are suffering the consequences of our state’s failed leadership. But there’s still time to get local leaders to do the right thing. If you live in Midland, call your school board to urge them to require masks in schools. Contact info here: https://t.co/dll9TyXwU4 https://t.co/49Q6ZuBAql

The Texas House just started debate on the SB 1 voter suppression bill, and will vote on it shortly. Watch here as the Republican majority tries to dismantle our democracy: https://t.co/4PVFKw5w2h

In the absence of state leadership, let's continue to push Texas school districts to do what's needed to protect children from Covid. These school districts meet TONIGHT. Please attend and urge your trustees to require masks in schools. More details here: https://t.co/dll9TyXwU4 https://t.co/t9N6QHbnEr

We elect leaders to look out for our communities and keep us safe. That's their job. If the governor has no interest in stopping this virus, the least he can do is step aside and let local officials provide the necessary leadership. https://t.co/5nQF9Jx7WH

Tomorrow the Texas House will vote on the SB 1 anti-voter bill. Texas: This may be the last chance to do what we can to keep this from becoming law. Call your legislators and urge them to vote NO. Tell them to stop tampering with our elections: https://t.co/f3hxH7agR1

Kennard ISD is the 4th East Texas school district to cancel classes due to COVID outbreaks in schools. We have the power to prevent this. Schools boards should follow all CDC guidelines, including requiring masks in schools. This keeps kids safe and keeps them in the classroom. https://t.co/B7LApAPixV

RT @dremilyportermd: Suburban Austin. County health officials recommended closing school for 10 days but got the finger from the district, which has a 10% mask opt-out. Based on the the R0 of delta, experts expect the entire student body to be infected in the next 5 weeks and 420 kids hospitalized. https://t.co/AI36buljHg

The U.S. House just passed the John Lewis Voting Rights Act. This is an important step forward, but not enough to save our democracy until this bill and the For the People Act become law. The President must push to reform the filibuster so that the Senate can pass both bills.
