Every student deserves fully staffed and resourced schools. Every educator deserves a living wage that reflects their vital role in our communities.
The reality, unfortunately, is very different. Our union aims to change that.
On Feb. 4, more than 80,000 educators across California launched “We Can’t Wait,” a campaign involving CTA locals’ shared demands and coordinated negotiations with 32 school districts. Educators from Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego, Oakland, Anaheim, Sacramento, Richmond and two dozen other school districts — who teach and serve 1 million students — participated.
