“Paid Family Leave” is something people don’t think about until the moment your life has been impacted by a family member’s illness. However, the UNITY Caucus is thinking about it and we are ready to fight for it. Are you ready to fight with us?

The System is Broken.

It boggles the mind that one of the speakers at last nights PEP said they had to bring their personal laptop to log into the zoom so they could get closed captions. So it’s not just schools that have an accessibility issue. @nycschools.bsky.social

Imagine what it must feel like being the educator who has to work in these conditions knowing their students are not getting what they need day in and day out. Let’s talk about moral injury.
A single staffer pushing multiple children in wheelchairs. Missed opportunities for inclusion in general education classrooms. And lack of transportation to school.

You’ll never look back and regret organizing. Coming together isn’t always easy but it’s always worth it.

Removing a principal once was worth it. Organizing a second staff to remove the SAME principal from a second school? A pleasure.
