If the federal government won't hold these rogue ICE and Border Patrol agents accountable, then Chicago will do everything in our power to bring them to justice.
Public services are massively underfunded and teacher salaries are falling further behind the contiguous states. Tax cuts are not needed. Rather, its past time to reinvest in the services that are withering on the vine due to past tax cuts.

New"Detroit poll- 48% of respondents said Trump's economic policies have made the national economy overall weaker, while 38% said his policies have made the economy stronger. https://t.co/1IClzmzk3l
Yep- “Teachers organizing for change isn’t about leaving for better pay elsewhere, it’s about correcting that imbalance so public schools are properly funded and educators are paid fairly where they already serve.”

And that is the problem with charter schools. they get to cherry pick their students and so very few children with special needs get to attend. https://t.co/2sxzikQeUl
"WVians need not accept more school closures, health care cuts, job losses & failed infrastructure as a result of a shrinking budget, particularly to prioritize more tax cuts that overwhelmingly benefit the state’s wealthiest households." - @kellakelWV

We're suing the TX Education Agency because these investigations aren't about what's happening in the classroom. They're a state-sponsored attack on teachers because of what was expressed privately to friends & family. https://t.co/ATXTY4e89n
2/3 of a state income tax cut will benefit the top 20% wealthiest households who already receive *$2.2 billion annually* from recent state + federal tax cuts. To consider more tax cuts for them before addressing school closures, PEIA, and child welfare is unconscionable.
After two years of unprecedented revenue decline, a historic number of public school closures, rising PEIA costs, and declining infrastructure, more income tax cuts that overwhelmingly benefit the state’s wealthiest are fiscally irresponsible, bad for our people + quite unserious

Wow- Nearly 17 percent of public school teachers reported working outside of the classroom to make ends meet. This compares to the national average of 6% of workers who have multiple jobs. https://t.co/lmBH0apP97
Yup, why “end to a model that brings union and management together to work collaboratively and for a return to an old industrial model which produces conflict and pits workers and employers against each other.” https://t.co/PGguWrZggN
