.@UFT President Michael Mulgrew (a critic of mayoral control who thinks it should be abolished) says the two year extension is better than a four year. @NYCMayor also backed undoing it on the campaign trail, before supporting it as mayor

In honor of Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, we are sharing the story of the UFT’s own Marian Thom (July 28, 1936 - Sept. 4, 2024). Marian was born and raised in Manhattan’s Chinatown. She became a paraprofessional in 1970, a job she held for 36 years. Soon after she joined the union, she helped to organize the UFT Paraprofessionals Chapter. In later years she founded the UFT Asian American Heritage Committee, and as Chair she built up the annual Lunar New Year banquet (coming up this week at a new time to celebrate AANHPI Heritage Month!). Marian is remembered as a passionate advocate for her own community and others, always encouraging people to “stand up and be counted”. She was extremely active in union work in retirement as well. We remember and honor her dedication and legacy!

Alongside our members who live on Long Island, the UFT is closely monitoring the LIRR strike. Most UFT members should fill out a OP201 form — OT/PTs and nurses should fill out a PD19 form — if you are late for work due to extrodinary transit delays. We will continue to update you with any changes. We hope a fair contract is reached soon.

Today marks the 72nd anniversary of the landmark Brown v. Board of Education ruling that racial segregation in public schools is unconstitutional. We commemorate this decision as a crucial turning point in our nation’s history and a powerful step toward educational equity.
