ICYMI: A Major Win for Public Education

Hi friend,

This week brought incredible news for students, educators, and the future of public education: U.S. District Judge Myong Joun has protected the Department of Education from being dismantled — affirming that our institutions, and the people they serve, matter.

In a powerful ruling, Judge Joun made it clear: no president can erase a federal agency with the stroke of a pen. His decision restores jobs, safeguards public education funding, and upholds the department’s vital mission to support students and protect civil rights.

It’s a joyful reminder that when we stand up for what’s right, we can make a difference. Add your name to thank Judge Joun and show your support for public education >>

In solidarity,

Emily from The Smile
