Hey @kenzebrowski_ny, @NYSUT and public school advocates urge you to REJECT the expansion of charter schools. Stand with educators, parents, students and not billionaires advocating for charter expansion. Charter schools can’t fill their current seats - they don’t need more!

All who serve in the House share a responsibility to bring dignity to this body. Sadly, Republicans' cavalier attitude in electing a Speaker is frivolous, disrespectful and unworthy of this institution. We must open the House and proceed with the People's work.

The deputy chancellor may be City & State’s biggest loser this week but our youngest learners, educators and families pay the price.

Early childhood staffers to @DOEChancellor: "No one is speaking to us, those who go into schools and know the needs of our youngest learners. No one has asked us what our jobs really entail. No one has joined us on site visits, although you are welcome to do so"

NYC's Pre-K and 3-K programs in turmoil: Staffers calling for vote of no confidence in Kara Ahmed, deputy chancellor of early childhood education: "Disorganization, confusion, managerial incompetence, systematic dismantling of the instructional plan and supporting services."

Students have a right to a sound education and the CFE decision speaks of need to reduce nyc class sizes. You don’t even need to “fight like hell” all you have to do is sign this wildly popular legislation into law. Listen to parents, student and educators. Not @NYCMayor
When our fundamental rights are under attack, I will always stand up and fight like hell to protect them — because that’s what New Yorkers do.

It's time to re-examine the per-pupil spending formula that isn't serving our students. #FundOurSchools

Cool story 😎 @NYCMayor - but no one is buying it. The number is $469,000,000. #RestoreTheCuts
As two former New York City public school students, @DOEChancellor and I know there is nothing more important than providing the children in our public schools the resources they need. Read about our plan to use federal stimulus funds to offset drops in student enrollment:

Kids>Politics @NYCMayor the money is there. For some reason you don’t want smaller class sizes for NYC kids so you’re pretending the city doesn’t have the money to fund schools. That’s a lie. #RestoreTheCuts #FundOurSchools
@GovKathyHochul sign the class size bill. Shameful
