    Republicans rejected my amendment to their awful tax bill, which would have restored the teacher expense deduction for America’s teachers. We should support, not punish those educating our next generation.https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2017/11/22/house-republicans-have-a-little-known-plan-to-raise-taxes-on-teachers-by-2-billion/?utm_term=.8876e63fe9d0 …

        They aren't just educating children. They are LITERALLY supplying other people's kids w/supplies they need to learn. Supplies parents are unable to afford, b/c they don't earn enough. Supplies SCHOOLs are unable to afford, b/c the population is broke & Charters syphoning $ out.

        There is much which is disgusting in the GOP tax scam bill. One nugget which I only recently learned of is the provision that will make churches launderers of political dark money. And the millionaires who seek to buy policy will find their "contributions" to be tax-deductible.

        First step in the Republicans' dream of taking down the public school system - in their eyes, education should be an option only for the privileged - the rest of us are just serfs.

        My daughter teaches in the San Macos school district. As a first year teacher she spent 1500 on her classroom this year as it had very few supplies. Thank you for caring about educators.

        The median salary of an elementary school teacher in the U.S. is about $55,000 a year. The @GOP is selfish and cruel (a common combo in the odious class).

        Schools are obsolete. The education system is obsolete. Technologies are advancing so fast by the time you get your degree your education is worthless. Education reform now!

        Educator expenses are an “above the line” deduction so you get to deduct them regardless of whether you itemize or take the standard deduction.

        We should support them by appropriating sufficient funds to pay for classroom supplies.
