AmeriCorps is more than a federal program. It’s a promise — a promise that service matters, that community matters, and that every person has something meaningful to contribute.
 
In California, we won’t hesitate to defend our people, our programs, and our values when they’re under threat.

The President does not have authority to unilaterally dismantle the Department of Education.
 
It’s blatantly unconstitutional & jeopardizes the education of an entire generation of children.
 
As the President turns his back on America’s children, we’ll continue to fight to protect their futures.

so powerful. While others work to divide, national and community service unites.

I’m excited to share that I’ve been published in the National Civic Review, where I discuss how national service programs like Peace Corps and AmeriCorps are more than simply feel-good volunteerism — they’re vital infrastructure for maintaining a functioning democracy in the 21st century. A quick 🧵:

Today, little kids at Annunciation Catholic School were forced into a club that no child should ever join. It’s a fucked up club, and it’s growing because our so-called leaders refuse to act.
