The repeal of WEP & GPO is a testament to the power of our commitment to ensuring fairness and dignity in retirement. This is a historic moment for school leaders, educators, and all public employees who have been unfairly penalized. @stephengroves @AnthonyAdragna
Watching @NBCNewsNow where Senior Business Reporter @ChristineRomans referred to the union's elected leader as a "Union Boss." Why use such a politically loaded term? Fair-minded reporting should avoid pejoratives. Greedy wasn't use before she spoke of corporations. #UnionStrong

House Republicans voted for a plan to cut next year's Labor-HHS-Education funding by $60 billion (29%). Current funding for @USEDgov programs is already billions below the 2011 level in inflation-adjusted terms. Urge Congress to support - not cut - education funding @edfunding
It’s time to increase #EDfundingNow! The public supports investments in education. Tell your Senators and Rep why edfunding matters.
The School Leader retweeted
If @FTC approves the Microsoft/Activision merger w/ the labor agreement that we created to protect collective bargaining rights, it would send a game-changing message to corporations: Workers do have a seat at the table & their concerns must be addressed.

The School Leader retweeted
No student should be left behind because they don't have internet access to finish their assignments from home. That’s why I fought for funds within the American Rescue Plan to establish this emergency program and provide the hotspots, tablets, and Wi-Fi they need.

School leaders, the people responsible to reopen schools have been using these protocols outlined by @CDCDirector since July. We know what it takes to open schools, communities need to understand what resources are needed to make it work. @laurameckler @fran_chambers @emilyakopp
For example, a Chicago survey shows less than 17% of principals thought the district is prepared to open schools; only 28% of school leaders thought CPS provided sufficient reopening guidance; and 22% thought they had adequate staff to reopen. @maggiemfox @cbinkley
