Happy Saturday. ☕️

Below are the top news stories from around the country - handpicked for
you this week by the editors at the Free Telegraph! A new video
demonstrates just how far Democratic governors are lurching to the left
- right alongside the 2020 presidential primary candidates. Meanwhile,
two New England governors are urging Congress to pass the USMCA. And in
Tennessee, schools are about to get a whole lot safer. Read more below!

Democratic Governors' Leftward Lurch

What Happened:

Some Democratic governors expressed concern to the New York Times that
the 2020 presidential candidates are veering too far to the left.
There's just one problem...Many of those governors - and failed
gubernatorial candidates from 2018 - have espoused the same kind of
radical policies.

Why You Should Care:

The Democratic Party is racing to the left, and no amount of fake
concern from certain governors will change that. Michigan Gov. Gretchen
Whitmer, for example, held a rally with Bernie Sanders right before
Election Day. She's also on camera saying she would abolish ICE. Many
other governors support a massive government takeover of healthcare. The
list goes on...And they're all caught on video!

What Happens Next:

Democratic governors can't escape the radical policies of the 2020
presidential primary field. Period.

Governors Chris Sununu and Phil Scott Make The Case For USMCA
Ratification

What Happened:

New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu and Vermont Gov. Phil Scott are urging
Congress to ratify the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement ASAP.

Why You Should Care:

As the governors explain, ratifying the USMCA will expand opportunity
for working families all across the country. "Every day that passes
before the agreement is ratified in Congress," they write, "is another
day employers, workers and families are not benefiting from the new
opportunities it makes possible and the higher standards it sets."

What Happens Next:

The majority of America's governors support the USMCA - including
every Republican governor. Here's hoping Congress acts swiftly!

Gov. Lee Keeps School Safety Promise

What Happened:

Gov. Bill Lee is leading a $40 million-dollar initiative to make schools
throughout Tennessee safer.

Why You Should Care:

As Gov. Lee said in his State of the State address earlier this year,
"the safety of our children and teachers is paramount." But actions
speak louder than words, and the governor is following through by
putting his money where his mouth is!

What Happens Next:

The money will first go to the 500 Tennessee schools that have no school
resources officers. Schools that receive funds, however, can also use it
for things like securing entrances and exits, and training staff.
