“As mayor, I will... provide each school with basic educational support positions like librarians, nurses and social workers.” — @chicagosmayor to the @Suntimes editorial board on Jan 9, 2019. What’s changed? @AOC@CDRosa#1u#PutItInWriting@CTULocal1 https://t.co/ylQQCXDNAf
Hey Mayor,
I found the money that you said doesn’t exist for our students!
You must have misplaced it by giving millions in TIF funds to private companies to beautify our already beautiful downtown.
(Rahm did that too)

Hoping @CTULocal1 strike reaches a swift resolution so teachers can get back to the vital work they do educating students & preparing them for success in life. As a former teacher, I know how difficult the job can be & thank all educators for their service

One of the Chicago Teachers Union’s demand is for a nurse in every school every day.
Think about that.
They are striking because there isn’t a nurse in every school everyday.
The lack of care for our students is so dehumanizing. Who wouldn’t strike?

The future is in the hands of our teachers as they shape the minds of our kids & grandkids, yet so many don't earn a living wage, forcing them to work 2 or 3 jobs to make ends meet. That's why I stand with teachers in Chicago and around the US as they fight for what they deserve!
