Evelyn DeJesus AFTExecVP 🇺🇸🇵🇷📚👩🏻‍🏫⛪️ San Antonio Alliance (And Education Austin reached an historic consultation agreement with Austin ISD on raising employee wages this year too.)

Today, we joined hundreds of nurses and advocates in the scorching Texas heat because we believe in a better, fairer future for our nurses & patients. I’m proud to stand in solidarity with NationalNursesUnited as they fight for what is right for our community. #UnionStrong ✊🏽

We've said it before, but it bears repeating: Don’t mess with Texas nurses! 💪 Ascension can lock us out for three days, but they can’t stop our fight for our patients and our community!

Transformational #communityschools use strategic, relationship-driven partnerships and leverage community assets & wisdom to close opportunity and achievement gaps for students. Learn more in #AmericanEducator: aft.org/ae/summer2023/… Education Austin El Paso Federation @HFT2415 NE Houston AFT

VP Kamala Harris has delivered once again for students and educators with this exceptional choice of the “Education Governor” Governor Tim Walz as her running mate. Educators are fired up and united. We know that electing the Harris-Walz ticket is the only way to take America forward.

Congrats Tim Walz! As Governor his record has been exemplary including record funding for public education, protecting reproductive rights, expanding collective bargaining, access to affordable childcare & paid family and medical leave. Kamala Harris made a great choice!!

Governor Walz isn’t only an ally to labor – he’s our union brother with a deep commitment to a pro-worker agenda. Labor stands united behind the Harris–Walz ticket and ready to help lead the effort to defeat Trump, Vance and their Project 2025 agenda. aflcio.org/press/releases…

Our President, Ken Zarifis, wrote a letter to new Austin ISD educators in which he highlights recent union victories, outlines vital upcoming electoral initiatives, and raises a call to action. In solidarity!
