    I am incredibly grateful for the contributions of teachers across #Oklahoma & our nation. The selfless work that you do makes a tremendous difference in the lives of children & families. Happy #TeacherAppreciationWeekpic.twitter.com/OQ2L55I1Z2

        I’m glad you expanded this to include “& our nation” since some of Oklahoma’s best teachers no longer reside here. It’s a travesty that the GOP doesn’t value common ed.

        If that were true you wouldn't have voted for Betsy DeVos. Actions speak louder than words.

        Davos isn’t the problem, waste and overwhelming demand on a system which was not intended to be used to raise children is the issue.

        There are more Administrators than educators because the liberal social state has to raise the kids in poor communities. We buy their food, repair the facilities they destroy, and slow down the class for the ESL kids at the expense of the citizens kids. All this is waste.

        That must be why you refused to listen to your constituents about Betsy DeVos. That must be why Oklahoma is at the very bottom of every list when it comes to education, including teacher pay. What a hypocrite.

        This is a classic example of a US Senator being out of touch with his constituents. Do you even know what the GOP has done to public education in Oklahoma? Why would you know. Why would you care. You’re a Texan.

        I'm sorry Senator, we all know Trump is a pathological liar but for you to stand and say you're for education is simply following in Trump's path. Where has the GOP ANYWHERE in the nation helped with education in the last 10 years? The GOP hates public education, you included.

        You want to end public school as we know it. Looking at Fort Wayne, Indiana, who's state tax dollars are funding upper middle class and higher students to attend private school at the cost of Public School. Public School attendance decreased by 13%.http://wboi.org/post/data-confirms-voucher-hunch-district#stream/0 …
