@evamckend The 2025 plans would dismantle unions

There is disagreement among union members about the Teamsters decision to withhold an endorsement. The head of the union's Black Caucus tells me, “Any labor leader thinking that Donald Trump is the candidate of choice should turn their union card in." #h_b1ca3c572a1002c4fe1053eb4a2f93e7" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">cnn.com/politics/live-…

We need every anchor & journalist to be like Lawrence O’Donnell. Take the time & watch this. This is how it’s done. Thank you, @Lawrence.

VP running mate pick Tim Waltz- national guard highest ranking, social studies teacher, gay alliance club sponsor, football coach, as Gov passed law for universal school breakfast/lunch, endorsed by Minnesota educators. Let’s go Harris-Walz! #ImWithHer and now him too!

It was an honor to celebrate our retiring @BaltCoPS educators last night! Your passion for teaching has inspired countless young learners and fellow educators who will continue making Baltimore County a better place to live, learn, and grow.

@Mr_McComb @JohnnyOJr @PatapscoPatriot @BostCAB @TABCOPrez @DelegateForbes @Sen_Klausmeier Thank you 😊

@JohnnyOJr @PatapscoPatriot @BostCAB @TABCOPrez @DelegateForbes @Sen_Klausmeier You rock, @LNorring!

Among the honorees/retirees last night was my good friend Lisa Norrington, with whom I started my teaching career at @PatapscoPatriot! Also great to see @BostCAB, @TABCOPrez, @DelegateForbes, @Sen_Klausmeier and so many others!

@TABCOEDUCATORS Wow 😮 those over 30 years don’t get a raise. This is year 36. That is 6 years without a raise. Do teacher over 30 do less NO!!

"The idea that I won't be receiving a raise next year is heartbreaking. It feels like I am personally being told that my hard work is not valued, not needed, and not wanted, and I am far from the only educator that feels that way." - TABCO board member Bev Folkoff #RedForEd

Or the many, many folks in education who were warning *anyone who’d listen* over the past 10+ years that this was coming…

@Mr_McComb Also there is no pay incentive for teachers to stay after 30 years. The salary stops at year 30. 🤷🏽‍♀️

I’m aliveeee that’s all I keep think about. Death knocked but I didn’t answer

MSEA is proud to announce our endorsement of Wes Moore for governor! “He has battle-tested experience in every sector of society and the coalition-building skills to ensure that we provide a world class public education in every zip code of our state.” -MSEA President Cheryl Bost

@Ms_Sauerwald If we got to school 🏫 on a snow ⛄️ day, is it a snow day 😁🤷🏽‍♀️

Our Class "Maybes" - our wishes, hopes, and dreams for this school year!

🏫 In August, Gabby is expected to return to #TeamBCPS as a teaching assistant in a PreKindergarten class at @BearCreekES and to attend @CCBCMD Essex. teambcps.exposure.co/face-of-the-we…

Please share. 🧡

Important to emphasize that this DOES NOT provide an extension from the IRS. I encourage the Comptroller to work with his federal partners to obtain a federal extension for @TABCOEDUCATORS to match what’s being provided in Maryland — avoiding any unnecessary confusion.

I so desperately look forward to the day that our @BaltCoPS Board of Ed spends more time, or even as much, talking about instruction and learning as they do talking about sports. Our students and teachers deserve leadership focused on academics.

Serious question, Superintendent Salmon: how do you justify getting a vaccine and then tell thousands of Maryland teachers they need to go back to in-person instruction without having one themselves?

"This isn’t a Democratic versus Republican challenge...In reality, it’s complicated. Teachers know this. Parents know this. What they are looking for is a helpful partnership w/ Annapolis & w/ the State Department of Education. Why the hectoring instead?" baltimoresun.com/opinion/editor…

Couldn’t say it better
