We need high speed rail, more renewable energy, a revived economy, and the education programs to support the new jobs needed to pull it all together.
What we don't have, yet, is resolve across the aisle.

I grew up in CA, and lived there until 8 years ago. I'm glad to see my former state shining the light.

I think CA can lead the way. We have a governor and SSPI who both get it on education. To get education right, we need innovation...for sure...but teachers are the ones who will lead the way (and light those fires).

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
