While creating and supporting great public schools should be the focus of lawmakers across the country, the reality is quite different.

IEA ALERT: The Mackinac Center has a new campaign that is aimed at getting you to drop your union membership. Don’t be fooled. Be on the lookout for an anti-union message from the Mackinac Center, which is funded in large part by Betsy Devos and her family, in your school email.
"Teachers want a political voice to secure a safe and welcoming environment for their kids, and they also want to reverse the logic of economic austerity that has made crumbling classrooms and torn textbooks the norm." - @rweingarten

The #RoadtoChange has made it clear to me that the young people will win if they
-work on political campaigns
-knock on doors

-register themselves and others to vote
and most importantly vote on
NOVEMBER 6th!!!!
So happy for you, @JahanaHayesCT. You’re a breath of fresh air and you’re going to be a game changer for Connecticut in Congress. Can’t wait to campaign with you all over the 5th!
Transgender students deserve to feel safe at school. Period. We are horrified by the violent threats made by these parents and proud that the Achille, OK school district is taking serious action to protect #LGBTQ kids https://t.co/HBgVOkkkrz (1/2)
“@JahanaHayesCT is a shining example of exemplary educators who advocate for their students and never give up," said CEA President Jeff Leake. "She is exactly who we need in Congress fighting for all of us.” https://t.co/7GpvAq8gel
Lee Saunders is right. It is #unions that improve our lives, schools and communities. I'm so thankful to have such powerful partners, because as my sister @rweingarten said, when NEA, @AFTunion, @AFSCME and @SEIU stand together, we are an indomitable force. #NEARA18
Student leader @davidhogg111 addressed #NEARA18 today saying, “We are young and that means we don’t have to accept the status quo. And we never will. We intend to close the gap between the world as it is and what it should be." https://t.co/wQcgisRoA7
