I’m Emily Duggan, a reporter with the Kennebec Journal/CentralMaine.com. I just finished a six-month-long investigation of how Christian nationalist groups, parents’ rights organizations and others are trying to remake Maine’s public education system. Ask me anything!

2. Conservative privatizers see students as profit--study the decline of FL public ed since they bought FL legislators

who let them write laws to favor bankrupting public ed. Heritage Foundation bankrolled Proud Moms for LBigotry to try to take over local school boards. Stop them before they contaminate Maine public education.
