We know @BrightHorizons is funded heavily by Bain Capital, a billion dollar firm. So why can't they pay us severance and pay out our sick time?

Send an email in support of our demands:

Bright Horizons seems to care more about making profits than protecting the lives and livelihoods of their teachers! Let them know that if they can make millions for Bain Captial then they must provide for their teachers!" https://t.co/GRvr3DADkT

⚡️Email zap update!⚡️Over 100 people have sent emails to Bright Horizons demanding they guarantee job security and PTO payout! Let's hit 100 more by the end of the day! https://t.co/iZMwhPNfMS

What does @BrightHorizons have in common with Mitt Romney? They both relied on money from @BainCapital. Yet with all that $$, Bright Horizons can't afford to pay severance or accrued sick time to laid off teachers during a pandemic? 🧐🤔

Good morning! Today we wait to hear from @BrightHorizons about whether or not they will pay out accrued sick time, severance for the next 2 months while we are out of work, & job security for teachers. They promised a response TODAY. Teachers are waiting!

@AOC thank you for amplifying our voices!

[NYC Early Childhood Educators United @EarlyNyc]

Teachers & Parents of NYC @BrightHorizons childcare centers gathered today to demand Bright Horizons pay their fair share after ending their contracts early. Bright Horizons are terminating these teachers tomorrow & still haven’t committed to pay them severance We deserve better!

[NYC Early Childhood Educators United @EarlyNyc]

Thank you to the parents and allies who came out & joined online to support us today! We feel the love 🥰 Please share our petition & watch for next steps as we wait to hear from Bright Horizons https://t.co/S8ONeoCNY9

[NYC Early Childhood Educators United @EarlyNyc]

Today we called on @BrightHorizons to show us respect as they ended their contract w/our center. We hope they will listen to us and provide us w/severance pay to get through the next few months, pay out our sick time, & guarantee future job sec.

[NYC Early Childhood Educators United @EarlyNyc]

In our meeting, Bright Horizons told us they had met the minimum requirements of extra pay in April (SIX months ago 👀) & they didn’t owe us more. We deserve more. Teachers have to pay bills too! @nycDSA

[NYC Early Childhood Educators United @EarlyNyc]

A few weeks ago, @BrightHorizons held a call where we were totally silenced & could not ask questions. Do you hear us now? We are standing together asking for severance pay, paying out our sick time, & job security.
