Fall into Fall by Taking Action on Child Care & Head Start🍂 #MomSky action.momsrising.org/sign/fall-fa...

I started my career as a production intern at PBS North Carolina back in 2004. PBS has always had and will always have a special place in my heart. 💖 Please support your local PBS station! #PBS #PBSKids #hopecore #misterrogers www.tiktok.com/@pbs/video/7...

Disney won five Emmys for Andor, a show about resisting fascism, and then suspended Jimmy Kimmel for resisting fascism. Join me and tell Disney to really stand up for freedom of speech. #MomSky action.momsrising.org/sign/DisneyB...

We need to stop pretending that Charlie Kirk was committed to free speech. He created professor watchlist, threatening academic staff members who criticized rightist propaganda. He advocated restrictions on what school teachers could teach. That’s not a champion of free speech.

I will never trust Robert F. Kennedy Jr., but I still want to believe in public health.

Back-to-school jitters hit harder when PTAs have to fill funding gaps. Our kids deserve more than bumper stickers—they deserve fully funded schools. #MomSky www.momsrising.org/blog/on-top-...

“We wouldn't have to see the Epstein files if we as a nation actually believe women and believe survivors."—Join @momsrising.org to demand the release of the Epstein files. #BelieveSurvivors action.momsrising.org/sign/release...

Finally reading The Handmaid’s Tale. What chills me most is the parallels. Gilead twists scripture to justify oppression—just as today’s MAGA movement frames leaders as God’s “chosen instruments,” excusing immorality while ignoring Jesus’s call to love our neighbors. #IReadBannedBooks

I want to share a TikTok video I made earlier this year to call for protection of schools from ICE criminalization. Usually my TikTok is all about pollinators and gardening, but we simply can’t have another school year that allow masked ICE agents into our school! www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8BQsotK/

"[N]aturalized citizens could face denaturalization if they’re found to be national security risks. This policy disproportionately affects Asian Americans...In 2022, for instance, 37% of new naturalized citizens were Asian Americans." #MomSky #AAPI

Reading my own book on a southbound Tze-Chiang Limited Express. Just got 10 author copies from my editor before leaving for Kenting. Couldn't wait! Reading my own work feels like chatting with the me from years ago—maybe the closest thing we have to a time machine. #AuthorLife

Reading The Nowhere Girls with my book club this month. Three teens rise up against rape culture at their school—and face backlash for it. Fiction, yes, but let’s hope real-life nowhere girls spark change too. #NowhereGirls #IReadBannedBooks

Protest is patriotic. You care about this country to do something to make it better. Patriotism is not nationalism. Patriotism is about loving your country. Nationalism is blind loyalty.

About two years ago, I wrote a column about how depression spreads across colleges in this country. Two years later, things only get worse now--1.7 million students attend a school that employs a law enforcement officer but no counselor. It's very wrong.

Republicans' Big Bad Budget Bill is sneaking in a massive private school voucher scheme wrapped in the language of "choice." This is to drain resources from public schools. Ask you Senator to vote NO. action.momsrising.org/sign/Federal... #early-childcare #youthjustice #MomSky

While my *The Donut Rescue Team* is a MG novel featuring young voices & fun stories, it explores a serious issue. When writing, I learned that my local food bank feeds nearly 320k people monthly. Hunger in America is real. Protect food stamps. #FoodJustice action.momsrising.org/lte/SNAP2025...

I’m loving my neighborhood bookstore. #IReadBannedBooks

My mom started beating me up when I was three after my little sister was born. I didn't know what happened then, but now looking back, she was probably suffering from postpartum depression. Maternal mental health issue is real. action.momsrising.org/petition/MMH... #maternaljustice

Republican Reconciliation Bill has all the WRONG priorities. Instead of a "Baby Bonus," this is what the White House should do to encourage women to have more children | #MomSky www.momsrising.org/blog/instead...

😘🐧

Sign @momsrising.org’s letter telling your U.S. House Representative to VOTE NO on the Republican tax and budget bill and instead prioritize families and our economy over billionaires. #MomsSky action.momsrising.org/petition/Hou...

The House budget would rip away health care, food, & child care from millions — just to shower trillions on billionaires. @sarajacobs.house.gov , families are counting on you! Please VOTE NO on the reconciliation bill 🥺 #FamiliesOverBillionaires #MomsForMedicaid

SIGN @momsrising.org’s letter to Congress calling on them to reject Trump’s harmful and unlawful agenda, and instead pass policies that actually boost our families and economy. #MOMSky action.momsrising.org/sign/TrumpAg...

This is exactly why I co-host a banned book club: to foster critical thinking, to promote diverse perspectives, to protect intellectual freedom, and to stand up against government censorship. #IReadBannedBooks

Shame on the Trump administration for closing Head Starts! To my friends who care about kids and families, please join me and demand that Congress restore #HeadStart & #childcare NOW. action.momsrising.org/sign/Head_St...

Sen. Booker has the floor!

Depression and anxiety are the most common pregnancy complications. Moms need Congress to fund maternal mental health resources. action.momsrising.org/sign/MMH25 via @momsrising.org #maternaljustice #maternalmentalhealth action.momsrising.org/sign/MMH25?a...

With Trump administration laying off 50% of the Department of Education staff, students with learning disabilities will take the most damage. I had the privilege to talk to some of the parents and write their story. Please read. www.momsrising.org/blog/childre...

Mental health of kids shouldn’t be sacrificed to give even more tax breaks to billionaires. Say NO to Medicaid cuts: action.momsrising.org/sign/medicai... via @momsrising.org #MedicaidMatters action.momsrising.org/sign/medicai...

A third-grader asked me what will happen if ICE comes to our school. I assure my students there's nothing to worry about, while in fact I wasn't sure about that either 🥲 Please join me and protect our schools from ICE policing: via @momsrising.org action.momsrising.org/sign/sensiti...

I'm outraged this morning when I heard it on NPR that Elon Musk called a federal judge "corrupted" after the judge blocks DOGE from accessing sensitive U.S. Treasury Department material. actionnetwork.org/call_campaig... --via @momsrising.org
