Skyrocketing insurance costs are bankrupting school districts & educators alike. Teacher Joey Mathews testifies in support of legislation requiring districts to report these costs annually. We need clear data to inform possible solutions like a statewide insurance pool for all school staff.

! Minnesota educators deserve a living wage, affordable health care and a fair, flexible pension that helps them retire with dignity after years of public service in the classroom.

Loving all the blue we’re seeing from folks here in Minnesota and across the country today! Keep the solidarity coming! Every child deserves to attend a safe, welcoming public school, but that cannot happen with ICE agents circling school buildings and bus stops

ICE unlawfully detained one of our members and used pepper spray on high school students shortly after shooting and killing a Minneapolis woman yesterday. We demand they stay away from our schools. Immediately.

Opinion: This Labor Day, let's honor workers by actually listening to them
When workers have a voice on the job and a seat at the table, they can finally negotiate on a level playing field.

Today is
#EqualPayDay
. Women still earn just 75¢ for every $1 paid to men—meaning they must work 3 extra months to match men’s earnings from last year. Unions have helped close the gender pay gap. See how 10 Wisconsin educators won a $450k settlement with support from their union.
