This moment of zen from my ski this afternoon is brought to you by this pileated woodpecker and state protected wild lands. #Adirondacks #SoundOn

Thank you again for taking time to meet with your constituent educators and for supporting so many of our legislative asks.

We also appreciate your support for the foundation aid adjustments NYSUT is calling for as a package. Finally we really appreciate your support for a $1000 educator tax credit to offset educator expenses used to address student needs.

Thank you Assemblyman Simpson for meeting with north country educators today in Albany. We appreciate your support for the inclusion of universal school meals in this year’s budget! Children learn best when they’re fed.

It’s disappointing that we couldn’t have you support the 0.5% increase on some of the wealthiest New Yorkers making more than $5 million and $25 million respectively that would increase tax revenues to the tune of $1 billion dollars.

An unelected shadow government is conducting a hostile takeover of the federal government. DOGE is not a real government agency. DOGE has no authority to make spending decisions. DOGE has no authority to shut programs down or to ignore federal law. DOGE’s conduct cannot be allowed to stand. Congress must take action to restore the rule of law.

Union work & education work are acts of hope! "Fear, anger, and powerlessness shaped this election. But moving forward means choosing hope." Read more from @aftunion President @rweingarten aft.org/column/how-mak…

Childhood poverty is a major issue our members face as thousands of children carry the sometimes-invisible burden of poverty with them into schools where it impedes their ability to learn and thrive. Recently, @MelindaJPerson joined advocates in Albany to demand action.

I could get down with this! @JamesSkoufis has done phenomenal work for NYS!

We’ve been in our personal finance unit in economics classes for about a week now. Today a student stayed after class to ask whether it’d be more advantageous to do a pre-tax retirement account or a Roth account. Teachers have the potential to inspire future millionaires!

Let’s #FixTier6 so we don’t have to rely on lotto for retirement!

Vice President Harris: Imagine the Oval Office in three months. It's either Donald Trump in there stewing over his enemies list, or me working for you, checking off my to-do list

Americans are set to spend an estimated $11.6 billion on Halloween. Working on a special Halloween Econ lesson for students, while my littlest is getting PT this morning. Infographic: Halloween 2024 HQ Infographic - infogram.com/halloween-2024…

This election is unlike any in my lifetime. It's about hope and opportunity, freedom, and the future of our democracy. Let's vote for Kamala Harris for a brighter future for all of us. #AFTVotes

#UnionStrong at the Capital Region Leadership Conference! 💪 Great to be with all of our members in Lake Placid today! @apsta_albany @SchoharieTAPrez @DWSteven @MicheleBushey1 @LauraFranz12

Reminder that Western NC was considered a “climate haven” in the US. Don’t think the impacts of climate change won’t reach you. Asheville is over 250 miles inland and 2,000 feet above sea level. This isn’t normal and we need to address this as a climate crisis.

A little bait on rally attendance and boom "they're eating the dogs!"

Trump just claimed that immigrants have the "highest level of criminality". Actually, the opposite is true.

Trump was the first to let himself be baited off message. Harris mentioned his rallies, where she said people would hear a stream of falsehoods, and he rose to defend himself with a stream of falsehoods.

Fact check: there are no dogs being eaten in Springfield, Ohio. Do better.

Economy is topic #1! Middle Class mentioned right off the bat. The @planetmoney Economic Lingo Bingo is going to get filled in no time.
