[1]Bowman for Congress

John,

Earlier this week, Jamaal asked you to share stories of teachers that have
changed your life in honor of Teacher Appreciation Week. Hundreds of you
wrote in with touching stories about how teachers, coaches, and counselors
have made a meaningful difference in your lives to this day.

Now, as we begin to close out Teacher Appreciation Week, we wanted to
share a few of those stories below:

"Mrs. Anderson was my 5th Grade teacher. She was a former opera singer who
went into teaching. She took a small group of us who were strong in math
and taught us algebra all year. I loved it...I'm 70 years old, and I
remember and love her as if I had just been in her class yesterday!"

"Mrs. Reed, my first grade teacher, taught me how to read. She has my
unending gratitude."

"Mr. Pelster was my high school art teacher. He taught me to be completely
focused and dedicated to exploring the deepest realms of my imagination.
Thank you, Mr. Pelster, for teaching me how to truly be alive and how to
share my imagination, my visualizations, my love, my compassion for
healing with everyone."

"Mr. Frank Ortolani, Coffeyville Community College, Kansas, American
History Professor. He made history come alive. Such detail. He motivated
me to also be a history teacher in Middle School and later in higher
education. Thank you."

"My middle school choir teacher Mrs. Heino always made herself available
to all of her students. No matter who we were or what we were going
through...she listened to us and was able to validate our emotions, which
was a powerful resource to kids who needed adults to hear them and meet
them where they're at."

"Ms. Ungerman was my high school 11th grade history teacher. She opened my
eyes to US and world history when she made us realize our role in
effecting change."

"Oddly, it was a Guidance Teacher that changed my life. He let me know
that there was a great big world out there, and most importantly he
believed in my ability to go far and wide. Which I did. Saved my life
quite frankly."

These stories demonstrate over and over,
John: teachers have changed and saved millions
of lives, and their work is what love looks like in action. As we continue
our fight to transform our nation and to center and prioritize care in our
economy, we must continue to listen to, support, and uplift our teachers
and educators.

Jamaal is one of the few educators in Congress today, and he brings a
solutions-oriented approach to leadership based around empathy, active
listening, and care — the kind of leadership that's greatly needed in
Washington.

And since he took office, Jamaal has been working closely with other
members of Congress and the White House to ensure that the progressive
perspective is being heard and our educators, children, and families are
prioritized.
