Trump has just announced the firing of 1,300 workers at U.S. DOE, half its staff. This disgraceful decision will effectively gut the agency that manages federal loans for college, tracks student achievement, allocates Title I funds and enforces civil rights laws in schools. (1/2)
Our schools are governed by the same protocols as before. ICE agents cannot enter our schools without a judicial warrant signed by a judge.
Chancellor Aviles-Ramos told us that the DOE is sending a message to families letting them know that schools remain safe zones.
Congratulations to the graduates of our @NYSUT Leadership Institute! After a year of building skills, knowledge & confidence, these union leaders are ready to strengthen our movement. Worker power depends on strong leaders — thank you for your dedication and commitment!

Let’s be clear: When Tim Scott and Chris Christie attack teachers unions, they’re attacking teachers. Teachers unions exist to give teachers a voice so that they can do their best for kids. #GOPdebate
