The Smile: 5/23

 

Hi friend,

Happy Friday! A federal judge just blocked the Trump administration from stripping legal status from international students. It’s a major win for fairness, due process, and the right to learn.

Add your name to applaud this decision and stand with international students -SUBSCRIBE TO RECEIVE SINGLE CLICK PETITIONS FROM CIVIC SHOUT!

And that’s not all — the Supreme Court rejected a push for publicly funded religious charter schools in Oklahoma, and California is suing to protect clean air in the face of Trump’s latest anti-environment order.

Progress is happening — and we’re here to celebrate every bit of it. 💛
