It will also include a 3-paragraph statement asserting that the #TenCommandments were a “prominent part of American #PublicEducation for almost three centuries.”
That reflects the contention by supporters that the Ten Commandments are not purely a #religious text but also a #historical document, arguing that the instructions handed down by God to Moses in the Book of Exodus are a major influence on #UnitedStates#law.

It isn't the "polite" RNC of Romney, McCain, Bushes. The Gingrich loud-mouthing got normalized, stupidity got promoted, and "Straight White Males uber alles" is their unsubtle tag line. For all the three-Rs they seem to promote, they destroy #publiceducation and create #bookbans and sow division. No wonder their PR title is worse than what could be written by a 5th grade student. Also, those words are per #LauraTrump orders. MAGA - Make Americas-First-Crime-Family Grift Again!
For Teacher Appreciation Week, I want to call to your attention the Educator Assistance Act, a bill designed to soften the stranglehold of contracts that teachers are forced to sign when they gain employment in our public schools.
In very few industries are these types of employment contracts so one-sided. This bill gives teachers more flexibility to get out of these contracts without fear of losing their certification to teach.
It passed the SC House unanimously a year ago but is stuck in the SC Senate, not even having gotten out of committee. The last day of session is THIS THURSDAY. They need to act now before it's too late. It's the least our state can do for our wonderful educators.
