Hey @SenatorBreslin, @NYSUT & public school advocates urge you to REJECT the expansion of charter schools. Stand with educators, parents, students and not billionaires advocating for charter expansion. Charter schools can’t fill their current seats - they don’t need more!

Hey @SenatorBreslin!! I support the @NYSUT New Deal for Public Higher Education in NY. I urge you to do the same. Invest in the future of NY's public higher ed system to ensure higher education remains a public good that all New Yorkers can access! #NewDealforHigherEd

Thank you as always to @AsmSantabarbara for your support of public education and our kids in Sch’dy @SCSchools @sft803 @nysut #schenectadyrising
Strongly oppose creating a charter school in Schenectady. Any charter school will divert resources and distract from the mission of a fair and equitable public education for all. Our focus should be on ensuring @SCSchools has the resources they need for every student to succeed.

In solidarity w/ @apsta_albany fighting until we bring back each one of our combined members lost! @sft803 @nysut

Today we tearfully say goodbye to over 80 of our colleagues and friends. Today will be hard. This loss is unfair and unjust. APSTA will keep fighting for funding to be restored in the hopes that we will soon welcome our sisters and brothers back.

NEW: NYS Budget spokesman says the state will not withhold any of the scheduled state aid that was owed to school districts in less than 2 weeks. This comes right after @nysut introduced a lawsuit to sue NYS over potential 20% funding cuts. @CapitalTonight
