Thank you advocates & education champions who tirelessly worked to pass HB477. This critical piece of legislation expands full day kindergarten for all Utah students. Passed by both House & Senate, HB477 now heads to @GovCox to sign into law. #utleg #uted kutv.com/amp/news/local/utah…

“The Utah Legislature’s action of tying teacher raises to a school voucher program is an attempt to garner public support for a voucher program by masking it as a move to support our public educators. Contact your representatives today and tell them to vote no on HB0215.”

Utah State Legislators are considering school vouchers today. This is currently tied to teacher pay increases. #CompassionCoalition is in favor of teacher pay increases. Not in favor of vouchers. #utpol #utleg #uted #novouchers

While gathering Bill information to share with CC supporters today, we found that the Utah Representative Map had not been updated. We contacted today and have been told it will be done before the Legislative Session begins. #utpol #utleg #uted

Utah Parents United (UPU) and other groups continue to distract people with their loud voices and antics. This behavior diverts attention away from real & important issues, like school funding. #uted #utpol #SLCSchoolBoard

Closing schools is painful, but Salt Lake City School Board must face the inevitable, the Editorial Board writes.

“This crucial part of our public infrastructure is chronically underfunded, teachers…are shockingly disrespected & some of the loudest voices at the school board podium are those spouting spurious nonsense about anti-white racism & widespread pornography in school libraries.”

TLDR: “This viral season is like no other. I’m running out of adjectives to describe it. (Unprecedented. Worrisome. A pain. Exhausting.) Unfortunately, we don’t know how long this will last or how bad it will get. #utpol #uted #utleg #Covid_19 #Tripledemic facebook.com/permalink.php?s…

State of Affairs: December 6, 2022 The dreaded and much anticipated triple-demic is finally here—for the first time RSV, flu, and COVID-19 are rising together. And it’s not looking pretty. Here is...

I’m especially concerned for hospital systems, kids under 5, and adults over the age of 65, as they are at highest risk.

There’s a lot we can do: mask, test before seeing loved ones, get that airflow moving, stay home when you’re sick. The least you can do for a healthy season is get a flu and fall #COVID-19 booster. If you haven’t gotten one yet, it’s never too late.”

ELECTION UPDATE: As of 7:00 this morning, statewide turnout is 31.1%. Remember, today’s the last day to return ballots via USPS. But you can return them via ballot dropbox through 8:00 PM on Election Day. If you prefer to vote in person, tomorrow is the day! #election2022

Learning loss from the pandemic is a complex issue & not just about opening at all costs. It requires accounting for the conditions & giving schools & health authorities all the tools they need to respond. #utpol #uted #utleg sltrib.com/opinion/editorial…

We as a society need to be prepared for the next surge or pandemic. We can’t ignore the fact that we now live in a world where a host of highly transmissible & harmful viruses are circulating. This year is shaping up to be especially bad for RSV, flu, & yes, coronaviruses.

So we need to have a good faith effort to keep our kids safe. Vaccines, improved indoor air quality, & yes, masks should all be part of the equation to make in-person learning as safe as possible for all.
