Rally to Protect Students and Public Schools

Educators, parents, community leaders, and elected officials are coming together to stand up for students and public schools. The push to dismantle the Department of Education isn’t just politics—it’s a direct attack on students’ futures. If successful, it will mean overcrowded classrooms, fewer resources for vulnerable students, cuts to services for students with disabilities, the loss of job training programs, higher costs for college, and weakened civil rights protections.

We refuse to stay silent. As Secretary of Education nominee Linda McMahon’s confirmation hearings approach, join us Wednesday, February 12, at 4:00 PM on the Capitol Grounds (corner of Independence Ave SE & First Street SE) to make our voices heard.

Every student deserves the resources to succeed. Be there, dress warmly, and stand with us in this fight for our schools.
