NC life-long teacher & more recent principal. I talk too much about my school, my cats, Hurricanes hockey, & anything LOTR. I read banned books, support choice & LGBTQ rights, believe in science, & think orange looks better on cats than presidents

The money for clean air, food, & water.
The money for medical cures, highways, and safe air travel…
