Today, we received a cease and desist from the @MTEAunion as our name on X, and our email contained remnants of a time we organized together. We are not affiliated and haven't been affiliated with that org for 5 years. No need to Ike Turner us we'll glady give up the name.

Isn't he the president? He could just do it instead of posting about it.

Let’s give public school teachers a raise.

@MTEAunion @amymiz @JosephBrusky @Big_Ben_Ward @Ingridworking @NicoloOnorato @blocbyblocMKE @VDLF_Action @CitizenActionWI @YESstudents Folx need to stand with MPS students by ensuring the district is fiscally accountable and responsible. Standing with our students means ensuring equitable allocation of any all funding. Standing with MPS students means not just coming to them when we need something from them.

Our school district has a billion dollar budget. The least they can do is provide pencils. That's actually bare minimum.

[The Principal’s Office @educator4ever36]

If every teacher in every public school is not doing this with support and replenishment from the school budget, then it’s time to start asking questions of the school leadership.

@CollinRugg It's only called an insurrection when folx are trying to overthrow our democracy, like by stopping the certification of a legally conducted election. No one's trying to overthrow our government they're calling for a cease fire in Gaza! Y’all are really weird.

@elonmusk A parent should affirm a child, particularly if they are saying that's how they feel. Trans children are 8 times as likely to attempt suicide. Is it really about the children?

[Black Educators Caucus MKE (BEC) @BECMKE414]

What are we supposed to believe the commitment is of the mayor on intentional community engagement on the budget when the notice goes out two days in advance?

[Markasa Tucker-Harris @MarkasaTucker]

Did I JUST receive my first notice to the mayor's @MayorOfMKE budget hearing giving folks less than 2 days' notice to attend!?!? THIS is not engagement. This is checking things off a list. You & the budget office should be ashamed of yourselves.

Selective information provided by an organization that gives a certain group of parents a voice.

Children across Wisconins aren't learning how to read or do math in school. The numbers don't lie.

THIS is last year's Christmas card from Tennessee Rep. Andy Ogles, a Republican who represents the district that Covenant School is in in Nashville. #tnleg

@ATN_1863 Congrats Sarah ❤️

We need to ensure schools are safe and welcoming for all. Even one unsafe school is one too many!

[Sam Kraemer @SamKraemerTV]

NOW: The @CaucusMtea is hosting a press conference outside @MilwaukeeMPS headquarters — accusing the district of not addressing an “urgent crisis” on school safety for students, faculty & staff.
