An autistic boy who reportedly functions "like a 4-year-old child" has been missing for over a week—and it turns out ICE grabbed him in the bathroom and NEVER TOLD THE FAMILY. What the fuck!?

“NO KINGS” is more than a slogan—it’s a movement. Born in the streets, shouted by millions, carried in chants & posters, echoing across the country. On Oct. 18, we rise again. Stand with AFT members in your community to say #NoKings:

It’s good that the suspect has been arrested. Political violence must be condemned by all of us; and I hope we can work to ensure nonviolent, political discourse regardless of strongly held beliefs.

At UNIDOSUS Nat’l Conference the Power of US w/ @AFTunion leaders from Los Angeles, CA, Albuquerque, NM & McAllen, TX representing early childhood educators, school support staff & teachers. Lending their voice #LatinoStudentSuccess @AFTNM @McAllenAFT1 @CFTunion @WeAreUnidosUS

I refuse to stay silent as Florida’s leaders try to censor history, gaslighting communities of color. Our children need to know our history, the good and the ugly parts, so that we can raise a generation who will not repeat its mistakes.

For too long, teachers have had to have multiple jobs to make ends meet. I won’t let it happen any longer. I’m fighting for competitive salaries for our teachers.

Great to hear from Congressman García as he details the 40 year struggle of political empowerment in Chicago. Latinos have a seat at the table! Getting to the table is never enough. We need to elect people that will advocate for our communities. @RepChuyGarcia @WeAreUnidosUS
