Budgets tell us what our priorities are. If the House passes one without a $10K raise for TX educators, they're telling teachers, staff, & students that they're worth nothing.

Pass the Fischer Amendment to HB 1, #TxLege.

A $2K bonus for Texas teachers? $0 for support staff? This isn't respect. It's a slap in the face.

The Texas Senate needs to fix #SB9 to give certified staff at least a $10,000 raise & at least a 15% raise for support staff.

Today is Trans Day of Visibility. Trans Visibility is essential and integral to the well-being of society. It should not provoke fear, and yet it does currently.

Thank you for standing with working families and signing this historic bill into law, @GovWhitmer.

And thanks to all of the elected officials in Michigan who fought so hard to make this happen, many of them card-carrying union members themselves.

264 people registered to testify against voucher bill SB 8 today.

That's more than the estimates of how many folks attended the governor's "school choice" rally at the Capitol yesterday.

Vouchers are a thing parents across Texas desperately want, huh? 🤔#TxLege

[Angie Tran @angietranok]

It's thriving public schools OR vouchers. Not both. NO on SB 8/9/176/2354.

Quick congratulations to Texas AFT Retiree Plus member Phyllis Ruffin who will be on the ballot for the TRS Board of Trustees this spring! 👏

Both retired & active TRS members can vote for Phyllis when ballots are mailed in March.

I want my tax dollars going to fund my neighborhood public school — not to the pockets of wealthy families who were already sending their kids to private schools.

#TxLege should reject school voucher schemes & increase $$$ for PUBLIC education instead. #TxEd @TexasAFT

Union membership numbers from 2022 were released this morning by @BLS_gov, showing that 200,000 more workers were represented by a union in 2022 than in 2021. There are now more than 16 million workers represented by a union in the U.S. 1/

BREAKING: Bernie Sanders, incoming chair of the Senate Committee overseeing health care, has written Moderna urging it to halt its vaccine price increase from $26 to $130. He calls out that the vaccine costs just $2.85 to produce, and that public funds subsidized its development.

Friendship is so nice. Cause you could be having a crappy week. Meet up with a friend, have a good laugh, vent a bit. And just like that, life is a bit more bearable.

NEW STUDY: Being in a union means a $1.3 million increase in lifetime earnings – larger than the average gains from getting a college degree.

Teachers can make up to 6 figures ??? Tell me where, Abbott! Our Texas teachers would take it if they could. #TXGovDebate #txed
