Your NYSUT delegates attended the 2013 Representative Assembly in Washington DC, Thursday April 11th through Saturday April 13th, along with almost 2,000 other NYSUT members. The message was clear: “enough is enough.” It is time for teachers to regain their profession and speak truth to power. Wristbands were given out, that read: “We told it like it is—now let us teach.” Save the date—June 8th, 2013. It’s the day we stand up for teaching, our students, our schools and the future of our country. I’ll be there. Make sure you are too.
I just took action at the NYSUT Member Action Center. Its your turn to find out how easy it is!
