The author argues that the school system has turned its focus on valuing adolescents' growth into mature adults as their country's future. She argues that standardized testing defines who is worth listening to rather than individuals who have important opinions and insights. She criticizes President Donald Trump for his lies, including that gas prices are rising due to Biden's illegal action and inflation are still 40% higher than they were five years ago. The author also criticizes the SAVE America Act, which allows citizens to use government-issued documents to verify their citizenship, including those recently married if their last name on their driver's license does not match the birth certificate or other citizenship documents. The bill also includes flexibility for women who have recently gotten married. If approved, it would go into effect immediately.
