Hello from Los Angeles!

We're outside the school district's office with @utlanow.bsky.social to demand fully funded and fully staffed schools now.

This fight is about the school district investing in LA public schools, in the students, and in our futures.

It’s about standing up for what every community deserves. @utlanow.bsky.social #PublicSchoolProud

Stood alongside @angelaknapp.bsky.social & all 8 unions in LAUSD today to demand they prioritize students, schools, & education workers. @utlanow.bsky.social members have had 14 bargaining sessions with LAUSD with almost NOTHING to show for it. So today WE showed up for teachers & kids!

Our UTLA educators rallied across Los Angeles for better pay, improved special education and healthcare.

President David Goldberg’s message is clear: “Let’s keep fighting together.”
