4. The other point here is to intimidate teachers by subjecting everything they present in class to scrutiny by right-wing ideologues. It imposes enormous administrative burdens on teachers as part of Rufo's political strategy https://t.co/7CEKjWTavc — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
3. But it is also following the playbook of @realchrisrufo, who created much of the anti-CRT hysteria. Rufo is encouraging state lawmakers to push for "transparency" so he can weaponize decontextualized snippets of curriculum https://t.co/7CEKjWTavc https://t.co/njLy0CNYyh — PolitiTweet.org

2. The bill, authored by Scott Baldwin, requires "educators to separately post all classroom curricula online for parents — including lesson plans, worksheets, presentations and other materials." This is presented as an effort to provide "transparency" https://t.co/7CEKjWTavc — PolitiTweet.org

1. The author of an anti-CRT bill in Indiana told a high school history teacher that he should remain "impartial" on Nazism. This got a fair bit of attention but I want to highlight one way this bill is at the vanguard on the anti-CRT movement https://t.co/7CEKjWTavc — PolitiTweet.org

8. Large actors in an industry help set the standard. If @RedLobster and other large employers began providing paid sick leave, other restaurants would follow. In many countries (and some states) it's required by law. But Red Lobster doesn't need to wait https://t.co/dPH69Wn6Og — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
7. So is @RedLobster the only company that doesn't provide paid sick leave? NO. Are they one of the very worst actors among companies that don't provide paid sick leave? YES Does @redlobster deserve scrutiny? YES https://t.co/dPH69Wn6Og — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
6. The idea that "everyone does it" is undercut by @Darden, which owned @RedLobster until 2014. In 2020, @Darden announced they would provide paid sick leave to all employees. They've done so and remained very profitable. Red Lobster could do the same. https://t.co/dPH69Wn6Og — PolitiTweet.org

5. Instead of paid sick leave, @RedLobster created an RL Cares fund where employees can apply for assistance in a financial emergency. Who funds RL Cares? RED LOBSTER WORKERS Money is (voluntarily) deducted from their paycheck https://t.co/dPH69Wn6Og — PolitiTweet.org

4. We heard from workers who said that @redlobster managers pressure them to come into work even when they are sick Another point: Red Lobster's parent company could easily afford the benefit Its parent company recorded a $190 million quarterly profit https://t.co/dPH69Wn6Og — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
3. Keep in mind, providing paid sick leave is MANDATORY in 14 states and many cities. So the very low rate suggests that @redlobster workers have difficulty accessing paid leave even when required by law. This is backed up by our reporting https://t.co/dPH69Wn6Og — PolitiTweet.org

@redlobster 2. While the lack of paid sick leave in the service industry is a SYSTEMIC problem, @redlobster is among the very worst actors 50% of service workers report paid sick leave 30% of casual restaurant workers 12% of Red Lobster workers https://t.co/dPH69Wn6Og — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
1. One common reaction to our investigation into @redlobster is that it's "not just Red Lobster" that doesn't provide paid sick leave to employees. This is correct but it also misses the point. Follow along if interested. https://t.co/dPH69Wn6Og — PolitiTweet.org
