... domestic spending still rose substantially, increasing from 31 percent of the budget in 1953 to 49 percent in 1961. As I'm sure you are aware, it is Congress that approves budgets. Of course the JFK admin proposed a lower tax rate resulting in higher revenues for part of the 60's as happened during the Reagan admin too. Yes, spending went up during the Reagan years which also had a majority Democrat in Congress still. Please give me the details of "Jim Crow" laws supported by Reagan, I must have missed that.
When students are pondering a “bill of rights” for themselves, one might expect to see a vending machine in the cafeteria or a longer lunch hour on the list of demands. You know, kids stuff.

But students affiliated with Youth Empowered in the Struggle (YES!) are apparently concerned about collective bargaining for their teachers. And their “Bill of Rights” reads more like a list of demand that might be put forth by a labor union.

For whatever reason, Wisconsin State superintendent Tony Evers recently called the document “reasonable” and “well thought out.”
