@Amtrak I’m in train 20 to NYC from DC. Our train was delayed for about 2hrs due to signal issues. We are now on the move and the bathrooms are locked and the cafeteria has been closed. Can’t locate any of the agents onboard to assist. Better service & communication are needed.

@errollouis UFT retirees do not vote on the contract and many DO NOT want this privatization of their healthcare benefits.

[MORE-UFT @MOREcaucusUFT]

The proposed UFT 2022-27 contract is being rushed to a vote. This contract would change the lives of all UFT members for the next 4 years. Proposals like virtual schooling would alter public ed in NYC forever. We’re being asked to vote without enough time or info! #VoteNoUFT

[MORE-UFT @MOREcaucusUFT]

Reason to #VoteNoUFT on the ballot next wk: our proposed 2022-2027 contract opens the door to privatization. Chancellor Banks eliminated hundreds of Teachers Assigned UFT positions + jeopardized 400 essential Early Childhood Instructional Coordinator + Social Worker jobs (1/2)

The Senate and Assembly passed #CleanSlateNY. Thank you @CarlHeastie & @AndreaSCousins.

Now, we need @GovKathyHochul to sign #CleanSlateNY into law.

Call her now at 518-474-8390, and spread the word by sharing this graphic.

⁦@NYDailyNews⁩ ⁦@nypost⁩ PS 295 is the wrong school named in the article. It is MS 443. The middle school located upstairs. We share a building, but we are NOT the same school. Please get the facts straight & issue a correction immediately. https://t.co/57dNxmBxlY

Restorative practices instead of punitive punishment. Emotional and academic support instead of pushing vulnerable students out. It’s what every child deserves. @AndreaSCousins, @CarlHeastie, @NYSA_Majority, @NYSenateDems, it's time to pass #SolutionsNotSuspensions

@NYCTBus This was at 2:42pm. The 61 bus came around 3:15pm.

[Sherese Jackson @sherese_jackson]

@MTA I, along with other customers, waited about 30 min for a 61 bus to Park Slope from Ikea. This shouldn’t be. Do better or ridership will continue to suffer.

@NYCTBus 1 Beard Street. In front of IKEA.

Publicly funded, privately run charter schools divert resources from local public schools that educate the vast majority of students in NY.

@NYSenDems & @NYSA_Majority need to show their commitment to protecting public education & reject @GovKathyHochul's proposal.

[Sherese Jackson @sherese_jackson]

@patkiernan @bobhardt It would really be great to have an in depth discussion about this. Thank you!

[Sherese Jackson @sherese_jackson]

@bobhardt @patkiernan I wished you had explained what discovery is and how important it is to a case instead of just perpetuating this crazy notion that it ties the hands of prosecutors. Defendants should know as soon as possible what evidence there is against them.

[Sherese Jackson @sherese_jackson]

Efficiency & transparency are crucial to these cases. People shouldn’t be languishing in jail if they don’t need to be.

[Sherese Jackson @sherese_jackson]

think they know “best.” I am very frustrated with people who think they know more about education than the actual educators who live and breathe this work on the front lines of their classrooms daily.

[Sherese Jackson @sherese_jackson]

I’m sorry, but I am going off on a bit of a rant. I had a rough day at school. Some grades were collapsed into one class and some students were moved from my classroom into another room. It was heartbreaking. Lots of tears and confusion. Families are upset and rightfully so. One

perpetrators.The Mayor is not interested in creative & sound preventative measures only regressive and punitive ones. He has even refused to engage our union (who supported him btw) in re-negotiating our contracts. We are continuously disrespected and devalued by politicians who
