DOJ has sued Maine, Oregon, California, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Washington, Delaware, Maryland, New Mexico, Rhode Island, and Vermont for access to its most sensitive voter data.

At the @eduinternational.bsky.social Global Conference on AI in Brussels, @rweingarten.bsky.social's message was clear: AI must serve schools, not the other way around.

Educators must help shape AI from the start so this technology strengthens teaching & learning rather than driving it.

The bill last numbered H.R. 9495 would empower the Treasury Secretary to designate any nonprofit the Secretary wishes to kill a “terrorist supporting organization” and revoke the tax-exempt status on which it depends for survival. Unconstitutional but lethal in the harm it would do while in force.
