I'm angry that the only law regarding guns that has passed in KY since I was elected removed the requirement for training to carry a concealed weapon. Not a single restriction on guns in response to our school shooting. 11/

Today HB121 passed out of the House Ed Com, requiring 15-mins of public comments for school board meetings. I agree that public comment is essential for good governance and I filed an amendment requiring public comment periods for KY GA committee meetings. @kyhousedems #kyga22

A for-profit charter school has registered with a lobbyist in KY. Taxpayer $ should pay for public education, not charter school profits. Are charters coming to KY this year? @kyhousedems #kyga22 #teacherlegislator @DianeRavitch @Network4pubEd

Another life lost to mental illness. It is heartbreaking. My friend lost her son on New Year's Eve as well. We need to "stomp the stigma" and talk about mental health. We also need to ensure that health care plans cover sufficient treatment. We need to do it now.

What we do have in KY is 171 school districts that are educating our students in public schools paid for by public tax dollars. We have amazing kids. Phenomenal teachers. Dedicated and hard-working staff. 4/17

20% of charter schools close within 3 years. By year 15, almost 50% of charter schools close. KY students need stable education systems, not the churn that occurs with charter schools. Full report: @kyhousedems #kyga22 #teacherlegislator @NPEaction

I'm angry that there is not enough money for all of the mental health counselors we need. I'm furious that social-emotional learning has been vilified in a culture war against educators. 9/
