CEC21 helped amplify a D21 student's efforts to remove a 1-day school week on 12/23/24 just before winter recess began earlier this school year, which was successful. Glad to hear another potential 1-day school week next school year on 1/2/26 has now been removed.

Looking forward to this debate next week right in Bay Ridge. Wondering how one of the participants will explain voting for the largest cuts to Medicaid & food assistance ever so the top 2/10ths of the richest 1% of Americans can get more tax cuts. Join me there...

In March, CEC21 passed a resolution I wrote calling on the mayor to revise his proposed budget to continue funding 3-K ($112M) & preschool special education ($55M), and to baseline these allocations. Great to hear they're doing exactly that.

Trump must be a magician because he just made $6.6 trillion disappear over the past 2 days ($11 trillion since he took office), the biggest 2-day market plunge in history. Maybe giving an unhinged, failed businessman control of our economy wasn't a tremendous idea.
