My team was able to go to a PFT strike prep this week, to help out the teachers in our community.
Teachers deserve a fair contract! Teachers deserve good benefits and sick leave.
Teachers deserve pay that reflects how much they do for the children and how much they mean to the community!

Last week I was honored to be a part of a ROPA panel discussion. The event was attended by musicians from all across the country. As Evan from the AFL-CIO said, "food grows best when your shadows on the soil".

Big corporations pay the least amount of taxes possible. It’s time that corporations are held accountable for their exploitative capitalism that preys on small businesses and everyday workers. When they find ways to exploit laws to hide their income, they’re hurting people like you every day.
