Memo: NSEA Opposes Assembly Bill 236 | Nevada State Education Association NSEA opposes AB236 which removes NSEA as the named nominating authority for educator positions on the State Board of Education, the Teachers and Leaders Council of Nevada, and the Statewide Council fo...

AB236 will strip away representation from educators throughout the state by making significant changes to how educator representatives are nominated to various boards. It would remove the current nominating structure and replace it with vague and unnecessarily complicated language. #NVLeg

Trump wants to deport violent U.S. citizens. Should we start with January 6th insurrectionists?

The ‘China Shock’ Offers a Lesson. It Isn’t the One Trump Has Learned. (Gift Article) Economists say the U.S. manufacturing decline in recent decades was not mainly about free trade, but about the pace of change without time to adjust.

The lesson of the "China shock" isn't actually about trade. It's about how hard it is for workers and communities to adapt to rapid economic changes. Now Trump is trying to reshape the global economy overnight, with potentially devastating consequences.

This is an interesting point about the rapid change in industry that was the biggest impact to many cities that relied on manufacturing. I wonder if cities that were once industrial hubs are now reluctant to bring back manufacturing at the risk of a repeat of past events.

We urge legislators to reject SB220 in the strongest possible way. Meanwhile, we hope that the Revenue Committee will give full consideration to the revenue proposals put forward by the Commission on School Funding. Please, #PassThePlan.

Seems out of touch to say protesters are paid and that we are not feeling pain.

As a high school teacher I try to explain this to students but it seems many of them have this ingrained in the already. Focusing on being good humans needs to be embedded in the learning as much as possible!

We shouldn’t ask kids what they want to be when they grow up. It encourages them to define themselves in terms of work.

Who we become is not a question of career—it’s a matter of character.

The highest aspiration is to be a person of generosity, integrity, humility, curiosity, and wisdom.

A symbol of arrogance is assuming that anyone who disagrees with you is ignorant.

Humility is more than knowing the limits of your knowledge. It’s also about respecting others' knowledge.

Dissenters aren't necessarily uninformed. Differing views often stem from diverging values.

There's no such thing as a self-made man or woman. No one succeeds without support.

"I did it on my own" is a sign of insecurity and entitlement. Acknowledging help is a mark of confidence and humility.

Giving credit to others doesn't undermine you. It elevates them.
