We need to make teaching available, and we need to show it some real respect... I don’t mean a coffee mug at the holidays. - @ewarren #PublicEdForum #AFTvotes #FreedomToTeach #FundOurFuture

When property taxes are main way to fund education, that’s unfair to kids in poor areas, says @PeteButtigieg at #PublicEdForum #AFTvotes @AFTunion @NEAToday @AFSCME @SEIU @J4J_USA @NAACP

Education used to be the wind beneath our wings in this country, and it can be again with the right leadership. #PublicEdForum

[Michael Bennet @MichaelBennet]

Teacher pay was established when we had a labor market that discriminated against women. It’s unacceptable in the 21st century. We have to pay teachers like the professionals they are. #PublicEdForum

[AFT @AFTunion]

.@rehemaellis: Public education funding is tied to real estate. Do you want to change this?
@MichaelBennet: Yes. This isn't just about what kind of schools we want, it's about what kind of country we want. #PublicEdForum #AFTvotes

[Sydney Slifka @Ms_Slifka]

@JonDelano @MichaelBennet @KDKA Taken out of context, he says that we need a 6 day week to make up for the inequities of schools in poverty to meet the needs of our students... what he was trying to prove is that 181 days is not enough time.
