Our kids can't get books that aren't falling apart, but #Pruitt flies 1st class, a 19 person security team & 19 vehicles all paid for by us and a 25k soundproof booth. #seemslegit #SwampThing
Teachers across America are striking because they are underpaid and underfunded, but also because state governments have relentlessly demeaned, belittled and debased their profession. They demand well-earned respect. We should stand with them as they fight for their dignity.

@SenMarkey As I tweeted at the useless@SenWarren , this is on YOU Senator. YOU need to figure out how to distribute addt'l funding to municipalities to increase teacher pay. Property taxes increasing isn't the answer. What is YOUR plan? Worthless tweets only? -
This is NOT on MA's senators. It's on GOP governors & legislatures cheating kids out of a good education.

When I became a teacher in my 20s, I came to understand how little respect teachers had in our society, which is one reason I gave it up. I didn't want to work that hard and be so demeaned and poorly paid.

When state govts treat teachers like dirt, they are, by extension, treating our kids like dirt. Why is that acceptable anywhere?

Republicans have for years have applied a base philosophy,”Starve the beast”, to schools which creates poor quality. Then push privatize, ( charter schools for profit and ideological control). High quality, well funded, public education, was the bedrock of our nation, and should.

But our GOP believes tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans are what will make America great again... Not fair pay.
