Action Now

Our students deserve fully funded schools. Our families deserve affordable housing, food, and healthcare. But Trump is choosing to spend billions targeting Black, brown, and immigrant communities with violent ICE enforcement instead of supporting the people. On March 28, we stand together to reject fear and defend our communities. We believe in democracy — not kings. 📢 See you tomorrow: March 28 at 11 AM, Prudential Plaza

This isn’t an accident, it’s a strategy. Starve public services, point to the damage, then hand them over to private interests. Meanwhile, working families are left with fewer resources and fewer opportunities. CTU is standing up for the public good, because our schools, our communities, and our futures aren’t for sale. Join us this May Day as we organize for investment, accountability, and justice. ✊🏽

It’s the latest in a string of student-led walkouts at high schools nationally and in the Chicago area, but Friday’s walkout appears to be one of the few centered on the war in Iran. chicago.suntimes.com/education/2026…

SHAME on every Republican who voted to cut Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid with a so-called "Balanced Budget Amendment." It did not pass — but now they are on the record.

Local 1 members are getting ready for the No Kings Rally in Chicago! Dozens of working families have gathered before the rally to create signs, practice our chants, and show that we are prepared to take our fight to the streets! No Kings. No more crumbs, we want the whole pie.

Our favorite part about Twitter, post-Trump, is seeing all the people who visit our page just to declare that we’re “irrelevant” or “over.” If you’re following us, commenting, or engaging with the largest Black-led abolitionist organization, it’s clear we’re still very relevant and living rent-free in your head. We’re not going anywhere. 😘

With Project 2025 looming, our most vulnerable students face new threats. But here in Chicago, we’re fighting back. Join us Thursday, Nov 21st, downtown in your red as we rally for a contract that protects our students and strengthens our schools. Together, we’ll create the schools students deserve and build a force field around public education in Chicago.

Our partner organization is having training. We are looking for you to be there. Register and attend! #westsiderising! #members-unite
