As Arkansas embraces vouchers, public school funding lags behind national, regional norms - Arkansas Times Arkansas's per-student funding trails behind both the national average and regional peers, and students of color are shortchanged the most, a new report says.

New report shows that compared to other states, Arkansas woefully underfunds its public schools, which serve 95% of our students, while we're wasting more than $300M a year on voucher subsidies that benefit fewer than 50,000 families. #MisplacedPriorities

Trump's plan for a UFC fight on the White House lawn is authoritarian theatre, a clown show, and a total distraction. 🤡🥊
It might fire up the base, but for everyone else it's just "Hunger Games" spectacle over substance. #WhiteHouseUFC #Trump #Politics #ErosionOfInstitutions #MisplacedPriorities

This is all about The Trump Regime's misplaced priorities.

10/11 NDP Education critic Amanda Chapman blasted the UCP's misplaced priorities:

'The UCP has chosen to prioritise banning books over preventing a strike. They've ignored teachers' and parents' requests for smaller classrooms and special needs support.'

I don’t know how people can care about this when fascism has taken over the country. #taylorandtravis #sportsball #misplacedpriorities #ICEwillsendyoutoUganda #amidoingthisright

Instead of rebuilding and housing those who lost their homes?
WOW - #MisplacedPriorities

Betty, Penn’s new off-campus supercomputer, joins the AI arms race Looking for more energy supply, the university opted to build the system in Montgomery County, 30 miles from the main campus.

They seem oddly proud that their AI cluster uses enough electricity to power 1000 homes… 🤔 #MisplacedPriorities

The 🇰🇪 Kwanza Admin is building statues while Kenyans are buried by hunger. Legacy over lives?

While Americans face a crisis in housing, healthcare, and hunger—Trump is building “Alligator Alcatraz,” a gator-surrounded detention camp in the Everglades. A dystopian waste of taxpayer money. Many countries wouldn’t tolerate this. Why do we? #AlligatorAlcatraz #TrumpSucks #MisplacedPriorities

The state of Arkansas is going to waste tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands, of dollars on legal costs because Republican legislators decided to indulge Christian nationalists in their base, rather than using this money to actually help their constituents. #MisplacedPriorities

Millions go to state celebrations while hospitals lack gloves and syringes. Is this the Kenya we were promised?

The administration says it has to act on the Covid vaccine because thousands have said it makes them sick - but they refuse to act on the guns that are killing our children and ripping apart our families and our communities.

silicon valley billionaires spend millions on anti-aging treatments yet can't buy the wisdom of their grandmothers. 💡 money can't buy you common sense or genuine happiness. maybe it's time to reevaluate what we're truly investing in. #misplacedpriorities

Every day, people are losing their jobs because this clown wants to “cut spending.” But now he’s blowing MILLIONS on a military parade to feed his bloated ego? This isn’t patriotism—it’s a sick joke. Families are suffering while he plays dictator cosplay. #Disgrace #MisplacedPriorities

It never ceases to amaze me that when the regime attempts disenfranchised millions of children, disabled, elderly and folks just struggling to put food on the table, the MSM is like, whatever, but HOLY SHIT when then the stock market plunges.

$39.5 million for an office renovation—meanwhile, essential infrastructure crumbles, and communities struggle. ARPA was meant for pandemic recovery, not vanity projects. But hey, politicians always find a way to prioritize themselves.

Let me get this straight: tRump picks a schoolyard brawl with our closest allies & neighbors over the trade agreement he, himself, made and levies tariffs to punish them. At the same time, he suggests he’ll kindly remove some tariffs on a foe, China, for TicTok cooperation. #MisplacedPriorities

While the economy is crashing and our global allies are abandoning us, they’re focus on saving plastic straws
