Advocacy for the @UFT. 200,000 members fighting for candidates who put public education first.
It’s not enough to pass the class size law, NYC needs to come up with an actionable plan to build more classroom seats where they are needed.

Thank you @liunewyork.bsky.social for standing up for our public schools!

Last week, @uft.org Assistant Secretary, Mike Sill, made the case to @nyassemblymajority.bsky.social & NYS Senate for fixing Tier 6.

We need a pension system that not only gives educators the retirement they deserve but helps recruit + retain the next generation of educators.

The @uft.org team came out on Saturday, learning about how NYC educators can make real political change in our classrooms & communities.

We are ready to fight for what our members – and our city – needs.

THIS is organizing. And THIS is what UNION power looks like. 💪 #UnionStrong

. @keithpowersnyc.bsky.social consistently stood up for better treatment of NYC’s students and educators in City Hall.

(1/2) @uft.org’s own Mike Sill shared with New York State legislators why the State Budget needs to prioritize public schools by:

✅Fixing Tier 6
✅Funding public schools, NOT charters
✅Reforming Foundation Aid

& much more!

With the cut in federal funding to our highest-need students, @uft.org is committed to protecting our students & school communities.

Now… what does this mean?

It means fixing & fully funding the Foundation Aid formula to ensure our city receives the funding we need!

(1/2) "We're promising universal pre-K for every single four-year-old by 2028. [...] And we'll build upon that proven success of our state childcare assistance program [...] so that tens of thousands of families can access high-quality care for no more than $15 per week.” - @governor.ny.gov
January 26, 2026 at 6:40 PM
Teachers know how to organize, they know how to plan, and they know how to FIGHT!

This month was just the start of many activations in schools across NYC, as thousands of teachers organize to #FixTier6.

While hospitals are happy to spend $100M+ on travel nurses - they refuse to give NYC nurses a fair contract, safe staffing AND the respect they deserve.

We stand with our labor allies - and could not agree more with @newyorkstateag.bsky.social. #SafeStaffingSavesLives
January 22, 2026 at 4:14 PM
(1/2) The @uft.org is proud to support policies that advance universal childcare across our city & state.

Plans from @governor.ny.gov & @mayor.nyc.gov will help keep families in NYC & offer thousands of parents a critical financial relief.

Let’s get it done!

“The nurses of this city have been to hell and back over the last six years.

You got us through COVID, you sacrificed often at enormous personal cost and over the years you have cared for us [...]

The least you deserve now is a fair contract!” - @nyccomptroller.bsky.social

@uft.org is proud to endorse @keithpowersnyc.bsky.social, @ebottcher.bsky.social, and @dianaforqueens.com in the upcoming Special Election for NYS legislature.

@mayor.nyc.gov is right: Healthcare executives shouldn’t make millions while the nurses they employ struggle with excessive workloads and unsafe workplace conditions.

The United Federation of Nurses/ @uft.org stands in solidarity with NYSNA in this fight. #UnionStrong

These 3 labor & delivery nurses bring life into the world every day.

Mount Sinai fired them hours before the current nurses strike. No investigation, no due process, just retaliation.

This is how hospital execs treat the people who deliver your children.

"Five days ago, I stood together with Mayor Mamdani to announce that the state will fully fund the first two years of universal Two-Care, while also helping New York City realize the full promise of 3-K. We made that commitment and we'll keep it." - @governor.ny.gov
