Tornado Alley (PROG)

[B402]

Why aren't we.....

We can’t get people to fill our missing teacher assistant positions, and the same goes for many other positions that the union serves. These workers are taking up the slack and are barely making enough to eat. If the district offered regular, sensible raises, we wouldn’t have to keep coming out in force every few years.

People in the district or those writing opinions far away from the classroom don’t see what we see every day. We see the need, so we stand together to continue fighting for what our schools and students deserve. And yes, that includes compensating people for their work with a fair wage.

The strike ended Thursday, but Local 99 and UTLA won’t back down until the Los Angeles Unified School District does what’s right.
