They shouldn’t ever have to pay for their own supplies, however it is a 185 days of work, only you all in Congress work less!!
No teacher should be forced to take on a second job in order to pay the bills. We have to be better than this. Thank you to our Los Angeles teachers for staying strong — I stand with you. #LAUSDStrike

I beg to differ with the 185 days. That’s the biggest crock of shit. I see what teaching does to people and I know how hard it is. Trust me Ron it makes turf easy.

One of the biggest mistakes this country has made is the devaluing of public ed. We rank pitifully on a global academic scale. And in spite of what Trump and his supporters say, education does matter.

No citizen should be forced to take on a second job in order to pay exorbitant property taxes. You stand against your own constituents to appease the teachers unions who make hefty campaign contributions to you. You put self-interest above constituents' well-being.

I am a teacher. I work three jobs to pay my bills. I live in a small 2 bedroom house. My two cars are over 10 years old. All I am asking for is a decent lifestyle, not an extravagant lifestyle. I live in Florida. This story is true across the United States.

2nd job?!?!?
Try third or fourth job. It's a joke. I thought teaching was a respected and sought after job, it has become an absolute travesty.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
