    I will keep saying it until everyone hears it: Educators deserve professional pay. Educators deserve professional pay. Educators deserve professional pay. Educators deserve professional pay. Educators deserve professional pay. Educators deserve professional pay.

    Educators deserve pay raises. Educators deserve good benefits. Educators deserve protected planning time. Educators deserve work/life balance. Educators deserve support from administrators. Educators deserve fully-funded schools. Educators deserve more. Educators deserve better.

    Educators are professionals. Pay them like it.

    Standardized tests have never been valid or reliable measures of what students know and are able to do, and they are especially unreliable now.

    If we don't care for our educators now, we're going to have an even bigger problem on our hands later.

    I’m proud to announce that NEA endorses @KamalaHarris for President. Kamala has delivered for students & educators. With the future of our students, public schools, and democracy on the ballot, we WILL elect a champion for students, public education, and working families.

    High stakes standardized tests administered during the global health crisis should not determine a student’s future, evaluate educators, or punish schools; nor should they come at the expense of precious learning time that students could be spending with their educators.

    If we value education, we must also value educators.

    Thank you @NEAToday for making this Black girl from North Philly, who just wanted to teach children, so incredibly proud to lead our union. I am humbled. I am honored. And I am ready. We are ready to turn up that heat, and be the leaders we must in this moment.

    You heard our president: "Let’s give public school teachers a raise." @POTUS understands that every day, educators stand in the gaps for our students—and they deserve to be paid like the professionals they are. #SOTU

    Forcing American taxpayers to fund private religious education—even when those private schools fail to meet education standards or intentionally discriminate against students—erodes the foundation of our democracy and harms students.

    We are not taking no for an answer. We are stepping into our power. We will #EndGunViolence in our classrooms. We will do whatever it takes.
