Mary Gay won’t stand for the threats that teachers and school board members are facing. While it should be a no-brainer to increase access to high-quality education and knowledge for our students at school, Republicans are doubling down on an education system dictated by their narrow world-view.
You can join Mary Gay in demanding an end to the senseless hearings prosecuting the educators standing up for our children by instantly adding your name to our petition.

On the House Judiciary Committee, I have a front row seat to Jim Jordan’s pet project of bending government power to right wing extremists — right now that means using his subpoena power to enable censorship in our schools.
As a lifelong education advocate and former school board president, I refuse to stand idly by as right wing activists and lawmakers perpetuate harm on our kids and communities. The damage is already unfolding in schools, where students are being deprived of knowledge and prevented from having critical conversations that empower them to learn and grow. Our children deserve better, and we’re going to have to fight for their freedom.
It is so important that we are united in our work to stop right wing extremists from censorship in schools, and that starts here: instantly add your name to stand up to MAGA Republicans and demand equitable, high-quality education for our children.Teachers, faculty, and parents don’t need the federal government censoring fact-based curriculum. Students and parents don’t need elected officials bullying trans kids with extreme legislation that even some Republican Governors have banned.

When I spend time listening to teachers, parents, and students, it is clear what they DO need:And they certainly don’t need Jim Jordan and other extremists wasting time and money at the expense of our students by codifying misinformation and division.
- Resources to hire and retain teachers, guidance counselors, and mental health professionals – and pay them what they’re worth
- Repairs to crumbling school buildings and infrastructure
- Funding for after-school programs and extracurricular activities for students
- High-quality, healthy foods for students to eat at school
If you agree that Congress must put an end to the GOP’s so-called investigations and refocus on solutions for students and schools — instantly add your name with mine here.I am always proud to stand up for students and educators, and I am proud to have you stand with me.
