We’re still pushing to FIX TIER 6!

Keep the pressure on! ➡️➡️https://t.co/brxBmwxU0d

As we await the passage of a state budget, we remain as steadfast as ever in securing pension equity for New York's public service workers in Tiers 5 and 6. And, in their communities, our locals have been working since to keep attention on our mission to #FixTier6.

Cyberbullying is rising—up from 35% to 42% of NYC students reporting it as common. 43% of students reported bullying on phones & social media. This fall’s new phone-free classrooms policy is a big step toward protecting students’ mental health & safety.

Our new classroom heat law goes into effect this fall, and it's already pushing districts to act. Heat waves aren't going away. It's important we prepare — students and educators deserve safe classrooms. @nysut

NYSUT President @MelindaJPerson is right: today we might be meeting in the middle to bridge the gap between Tiers 4 and 6, but when it comes to fixing our broken pension system, we’re gonna go all 👏 the 👏 way 👏
