“Any meaningful effort to better protect children online is a step in the right direction, but it is only a starting point. Social media companies have spent years building platforms designed to keep young people engaged. They have a responsibility to ensure those same platforms are not putting children’s safety and well-being at risk.”

“Literacy is the foundation for everything: a good job, financial independence, being able to help your kids with homework. This $60,000 grant means that more adults in our district will get the one-on-one instruction they need to build those skills. I’m proud to see this investment in our community, and I’ll keep fighting for the resources our libraries and literacy programs need to serve every family in the Sweet 16th District.”

“For too long, we’ve treated success like it follows a single path. The reality is that our students have different talents different ambitions and different plans for their future. This law recognizes that and gives young people more opportunities to build skills that can lead directly to good paying jobs and rewarding careers.”
