We’re headed to Springfield today with a clear message: stop protecting billionaires and start funding our schools. If there is money for tax breaks, then there should be plenty of money for classrooms. Educators are mobilizing to pass legislation to tax the rich, and fully fund Illinois schools. Because...

We came to Springfield to deliver one message: tax the rich and fully fund our schools. Governor Pritzker and the Democratic supermajority must pass legislation to make billionaires pay their fair share so our students get the fully funded education they deserve. Special education teachers. Clinicians. Educators. We are stretched thin and our students are paying the price. No more tax breaks for billionaires. Prioritize our children. Tax the rich to fully fund our schools.

This week we headed to Springfield because Illinois has the resources to fully fund public education — but Governor Pritzker and the Democratic supermajority still have to decide whose side they’re on. Are they on the side of billionaires and corporate tax breaks? Or are they with students, educators, and working families? We showed up to back HB 5409 and SB 3701, which ends proration, and demand the state finally meet its own funding promises. There are more educators than billionaires. And we’re organizing like it.

Pretty simple concept. Over 90% of k-12 students in Iowa go to public schools. We should be fully funding our public schools, and should make sure that the richest families who were going to send their kids to private schools anyway aren't using your tax dollars to pay for tuition.

The veto session is over, and the state of Illinois still owes Illinois school districts nearly $5 Billion in undelivered funds. These are the funds that would ensure our students have the resources they need to thrive, like mental health supports, special education programs, safe passage, and more. As CTU and IFT president Stacy Davis Gates reminds us, the solution is simple: tax the ultra-wealthy corporations and fully fund our schools. Chicago has billionaires, Illinois has billionaires. They just received a historic tax cut from Trump. Governor Pritzker has the power to take action. Tax the billionaires. Fund our schools.

Abbott and his billionaire mega-donors are trying to defund our schools with a voucher scam. My colleagues and I are fighting to fully fund our schools. Our message is simple: fund students, not scams. #txlege

Education is an opportunity agent, and federal support should not be used as a piggy bank to defund our already underfunded public schools and give billionaires another tax cut. #HandsOffPublicSchools

Instead of teaching students woke propaganda, our schools should be teaching students how to manage money, invest, and pay taxes. Financial literacy should start in high school.

Schools should be safe places for students. ICE officers are detaining educators at Minnesota high schools—causing chaos and tension in our communities. ICE needs to get off our streets and stay away from our schools.

Graham Platner: “Paying union workers a good wage to build our schools and our roads and our energy grids is the best possible way we could spend our money. Certainly better than giving tax breaks to billionaires or blowing up girls’ schools in Iran”

We’re building a movement to take on the 1% — and win. Because there is enough money to fund schools, hospitals and climate action. It’s just being hoarded. It’s time for the super rich to PAY UP. 📢Under 35? Join our campaign launch call at the link in our bio.

Trump and the Republican Congress are costing Illinois over $8 billion. Money for your schools, roads, and hospitals is being used to fund ICE, tax cuts for the wealthy, and a golden ballroom. Here in Illinois, we're persevering to help working families and deliver real relief.

Khanna: Billionaires’ spending in our elections has gone from 0.3% 20 years ago to 20%. And the money is corroding our politics. It’s not allowing us to see clearly. Because if we would see clearly, there should be no doubt that politicians can say simply, there is genocide that took place in Gaza. There should be no doubt, if money wasn’t corrupting our politics, that we could say that we should zero out the aid to Israel and stop giving them military weapons that are killing children in Palestine.

The Trump admin is dumping billions to open the equivalent of concentration camps. That money should be going to hospitals, schools, and our communities.

Elite universities say they need to prioritize donors, but they don't. Harvard has a $50 billion endowment, and it could use that money to be a school instead of a hedge fund. Schools should use their money to be places of learning, not centers of power for billionaires.

.Donald J. Trump and I agree: the debt limit should be scrapped to prevent an economic catastrophe. Let's pass a bipartisan bill and get rid of it forever. But jacking up the debt limit by $4 trillion to fund more tax breaks for billionaires is an outrage.
