After years of constant shootings across the nation, and little action taken by our government, people are really starting to get fed up with our nation's current state. Teachers have already stormed the Capitol, protesting for the end of gun violence and for better gun rights. Despite their recent efforts, nothing had been done. Consequently, teachers stormed the Capitol a second time, hoping for a better chance. Although, this time they requested money. Teachers came together and demanded $150 million to replace dilapidated, decades-old textbooks and to fund courses. Along with this, they demanded higher raises for support staff and themselves.
Knowing that people continue to fight for what they believe, even though there haven't been immediate results truly helps me regain my hope for this nation. I still hate the government, yet I do feel better after reading so many articles about people standing up for change.
