WI lawmakers have heartlessly cut public school funding for more than a decade, forcing communities to go to referenda. Students deserve the best public schools no matter their zip code. We won’t accept another budget that starves students of the resources they deserve www.surveymonkey.com/r/BDPGJN5

MPS workers are holding walk-ins across the city before school day for International Workers Day to remind all that labor rights and immigrant rights are intertwined. Immigrant workers are the backbone of key industries—yet they face disproportionate exploitation, wage theft, & unsafe conditions.

A huge thanks to Milwaukee Tool for donating nearly $60,000 worth of new equipment and tools to seven MKE Public Schools technical & career education programs, as well as theater tech & arts stage crew programs. Our union played a pivotal role in helping facilitate this generous donation.
