Today we remember the victims of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire. It happened in Manhattan on Saturday, March 25, 1911, and was the deadliest industrial disaster in the history of the city, and one of the deadliest in U.S. history. This tragedy ultimately led to significant labor reforms.

Today we gathered once again to pay tribute to the 146 lives lost in the fire at the Triangle Shirtwaist factory in 1911.
More than a century later, it’s crucial to stand together to protect the hard-fought gains of the labor movement, and expand protections to all workers.

Now to make sure this message gets into every public school in New York City
Our union’s position is clear: We will continue to fight for schools to remain safe zones. Our students deserve an education free from fear, humiliation and trauma. Children should feel safe and protected at all times, and when they are with us in our schools, we will ensure that they do.

How do we defend the law?
