An open letter to State Governors & Legislatures

Reject presidential overreach and biased history EO

6 so far! Help us get to 10 signers!

The president's recent executive orders on education represent an alarming overreach of federal authority and an attempt to impose a narrow, revisionist view of American history and values. By seeking to defund schools that acknowledge the realities of systemic racism, gender discrimination, and social injustice, the orders threaten to create an environment of censorship and denial in our nation's classrooms. Moreover, the push for private school vouchers would divert desperately needed funds away from public education, exacerbating inequities. These misguided policies undermine our constitutional commitment to a free, pluralistic society. As a strong proponent of high-quality public education that empowers all students with honest, culturally-responsive curricula, I urge you to vigorously oppose and block implementation of these harmful executive orders. Our schools must retain the freedom to teach accurate histories, nurture critical thinking, and prepare young people to build a more just, inclusive America. Do not allow this overreach to erode our democratic principles and the promise of public education.
