Once again Anthony D’Esposito is taking marching orders from MAGA GOP leadership in Washington and selling out New Yorkers by protecting George Santos and keeping him in Congress.

Currently, @UFT is refusing to respond to our request until after the vote count - so the only way to get this information is to put some pressure on officials to do the right thing!

Worried your vote on the @UFT contract might have gotten lost on the mail with the debacle of multiple incorrect return labels?
Email [email protected] and ask him to respond our executive board reps’ request to allow AAA to publish the # of ballots returned from every school.

Not all PO’s have self-service kiosks. They need to scrap this vote and go back to the negotiating table. The proposed MoA is abysmal.

Thank you @JamaalBowmanNY let’s do this together and change this horrible federal statute that allows for “seamless transition” into Medicare advantage! @FDNYchic we shouldn’t help privatize Medicare and enrich Aetna with taxpayer money at the expense of @nycretirees & Americans

An excellent 90 second explanation for why the new @UFT contract is worthy of a No Vote this week:

The #UFT tentative agreement - not an easy call (though I don’t vote)
pay is REALLY lousy - but alone not enough to choose
Lack of clarity on upcoming health care cuts tips the scales - I recommnd a No Vote

Voting NO! The raises are abysmal, there is still no equity for fostering/adopting members, finally fixing wrongs with two UFT parents shouldn’t be a bargaining chip, and family engagement should always been offered remotely, so few families can meet at 2:30pm.

The Municipal Labor Committee has diminished health care for retirees, and now they're coming for us. Rank and file get no vote or voice in their decisions. They ought to serve us, rather than Eric Adams. MLC--What Is It Good For? nyceducator.com/2023/05/mlc-…
When can we vote no confidence in this “leadership”?
“Mulgrew threatened us. If we didn’t support diminished health care for retirees, our own health care would be diminished. By pitting one union faction against another, Mulgrew and other union leaders took a fundamentally anti-union position.” nydailynews.com/opinion/ny-o…

Please stop buying sage. Walk into any cutesy boutique or even search Amazon and you’ll find it everywhere. This popularity is causing problems and there are other options. 🧵

Positivity rates are 50% higher now than they were when this advisory was issued. Please #MaskUp in @NYCSchools tomorrow.
If @NYCHealthCommr and @DOEChancellor were allowed to just look out for kids and staff, they'd be issuing mandates, but we can #KeepEachOtherSafe anyway.
Today @NYCHealthCommr issued an advisory as NYC faces high levels of COVID-19, flu and RSV. New Yorkers are strongly urged to wear masks in public indoor settings and crowded outdoor settings: on.nyc.gov/3ULqGDZ
ALT Text reads: COVID-19 Advisory. Everyone should wear a mask: At all times when in an indoor public setting, including inside stores, offices, lobbies, hallways, elevators, public transportation, schools, child care facilities, and other public shared spaces; In crowded outdoor settings; If you’re sick and unable to separate from others, such as when traveling to and from a health care provider, picking up groceries

Our union, @UFT, is now forced to negotiate against leadership rather than the city. This is absurd. Leadership doesn't seem to even know what union is. Leadership negotiating policy is depicted below: nyceducator.com/2022/12/uft-…
Ms. M-T retweeted
Our leadership made a terrible deal without our input. Now they want us to pay for it, quite literally. If you believe the city's contributing less money to our health care reflects savings for us, I have a bridge to sell you. nyceducator.com/2022/11/uft-…

The votes keep coming. 97% feel @UFT’s Michael Mulgrew deserves a VOTE of NO CONFIDENCE for how he’s handled our healthcare and how he’s unilaterally made decisions changing our contract during the pandemic emergency.
Cast your vote in our straw poll.

Many are calling for a NO CONFIDENCE VOTE of UFT President Michael Mulgrew for his unilateral decisions regarding changes to our contract during the pandemic emergency & placing our premium free healthcare in danger with backroom deals. Agree?

The big challenge for whoever takes this on is that the reason people went to the visitor and education center was because of the telescope, and the education programs involved interacting with scientists at the telescope. How do you do this with no telescope and no scientists?
The National Science Foundation will not rebuild the renowned telescope at the Arecibo Observatory, in Puerto Rico, which was used for years to search for asteroids, planets & extraterrestrial life. Instead, it intends to build an education center there. apnews.com/article/astronomy…

.@DOEChancellor @UFT What is the contingency plan should there be MPX or COVID19 outbreaks in schools? What preventative measures are you implementing?
Ms. M-T retweeted
NYC school paraprofessionals are ridiculously underpaid.
I hope rectifying this is a focus for @UFT in upcoming contract negotiations.
