A powerful tool in Trump’s immigration crackdown: The routine traffic stop
ICE is working with local police to arrest more undocumented immigrants at traffic stops. In a break with the past, many arrestees have no violent criminal record.

Senator Bo Watson’s solution to educating all the kids he wants to kick out of public school was for nonprofits and churches to start schools. Kinda hard to do when they also want to charge us with human smuggling. Make it make sense. #tnleg

Schools are more than just where kids learn, they are foundational to our growth and wellbeing. But now, TN lawmakers want to kick children out of school because of where they are born or how they got here. Help stop this race to the bottom before it’s too late. www.educationforalltn.org/email?ms=TV

A lot of executive orders were signed today, but none of those are doing anything to lower the prices of groceries, gas, or housing. Don’t let them fool you, this isn’t about working people, it’s about lining the pocketbooks of private prisons and billionaires.
