5. An analysis of 270K students in 2011 found that SEL interventions increased students’ academic performance by 11% A 2021 study found SEL reduced "symptoms of depression and anxiety" in schools https://t.co/tFYkklE4qw — PolitiTweet.org

4. SEL is none of those things SEL helps develop skills like self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship skills, and responsible decision-making Research shows there are MASSIVE benefits to students https://t.co/tFYkklE4qw — PolitiTweet.org

3. Nevertheless, opponents of Critical Race Theory have decided that Social Emotional Learning is just a Trojan Horse for CRT Right-wing critics have called SEL "racist garbage," "anti-white," and "a vehicle for introducing leftist propaganda." https://t.co/tFYkklE4qw — PolitiTweet.org

2. CRT is not taught in K-12 schools. But many K-12 schools do include Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) in their curricula SEL as a term dates to 1997, but the concept - character assessment and development - dates back to Ben Franklin in the mid-1700s https://t.co/tFYkklE4qw — PolitiTweet.org

@billscher @LPDonovan She could have been clear in 2018 that she opposed raising the top individual rate or rates for large corporations even partially but, if she did, I doubt she would be the Senator from Arizona today. — PolitiTweet.org

Judd Legum @JuddLegum

@billscher @LPDonovan Well, I don't think voters who watch an ad in which Sinema blasts Trumps' "huge tax breaks for the wealthy and large corporations" could expect Sinema a couple of years later to oppose any rate increases for the wealthy and large corporations. — PolitiTweet.org

Judd Legum @JuddLegum

@billscher @LPDonovan She is now refusing to even partially roll back those same tax breaks for the wealthy and large corporations. BBB would not change the other rates that Sinema voted to make permanent. — PolitiTweet.org

Judd Legum @JuddLegum

@billscher @LPDonovan "Middle-class families" don't pay the top rate. And small businesses don't pay the corporate rate. Check out her ads which blast McSally and Trump for "huge tax breaks for the wealthy and large corporations " https://t.co/JPKqeN0vfi — PolitiTweet.org

The big problem with the many pro-Trump alternative social media platforms is the the core activity online for Trump supporters is to troll people who don’t support Trump. If everyone on the platform is a Trump supporter, it’s no fun. — PolitiTweet.org
