Proposed teacher salary schedule in NC Senate GOP budget. webservices.ncleg.gov/ViewNewsFile... #nced #ncpol #ncga

Any NC legislator considering this bill should be required to spend a week teaching a class of 40 second graders before casting their vote. 🤔 #nced #ncpol

People don't miss manufacturing jobs. They miss the effects of having 30+ percent union density. And we can build worker power again, with good policies, for the jobs most working class people actually have today rather than hoping mumbo jumbo will make it 1955 again.

📢The #ncga has the power to address NC’s most urgent needs — starting by pausing the elimination of the tax on corporate profits AND the cuts to the personal income tax rate that overwhelmingly benefit the wealthy few. (1/6)

Our statement on the Governor’s Budget proposal #ncpol #LeadWithLeandro NC Students Deserve Better: The Governor’s Budget Neglects Leandro Funding

NC Gov. Josh Stein’s budget would freeze some tax cuts, add others and give raises. He wants starting teacher salaries at $44,500 this year & $51,200 next year & avg. of 10.6% in raises for teachers over next 2 years.

They’ll go to any lengths to preserve existing hierarchies

Happy to eat my words, but this has all the makings of a bill designed to fail, but that will allow swing seat Rs to go out on the campaign trail and pretend they support higher teacher pay #ncpol

HB192 filed today would raise NC teacher salaries, w/ $50K starting salary. Also restores master's degree pay for teachers. GOP-sponsored bill also calls for study of state funding teachers based on ADM instead of guaranteed positions. #nced #ncpol #ncga www.ncleg.gov/BillLookUp/2...

@mintcitysoccershow.com @gusbust3r.bsky.social Second question (prompt?) for you guys - just watched the new MLS documentary Onside. One episode shows some behind the scenes stuff with Zoran, Charlotte FC, and the Reus deal. Would love to hear y'all's take on it!

@mintcitysoccershow.com @gusbust3r.bsky.social Hey y'all! Q for you - I understand why Ream is at LB, but it didn't seem like he had the legs for it against Seattle. He should be at CB imo, but then where does Privett go? Thoughts on a long-term solution, or just trust the process?

"During a year in which lawmakers are saying there may not be funding for raises, the State Health Plan’s Board of Trustees took the first step on Friday to set premiums for active members based on a salary scale. Increases in premiums are likely for all educators." Source: EdNC bit.ly/417uNR7
