Pattern bargaining, in which all city workers get the same percentage increases, has failed paraprofessionals. A 3% increase translates to a much higher dollar amount for higher-paid DOE employees than it does for us, so we fall farther and farther behind.

And many other community leaders and public officials. This new center will serve as a valuable resource for our teachers, providing a dedicated space for collaboration, professional development, and support. #UFT #TeachersCenter #P.S.21 #StatenIsland #Community #Education

Jeff Bezos made $7.9 million PER HOUR in 2023. It’s time for Amazon, which is worth $2 TRILLION, to recognize union workers and come to the bargaining table. We stand in solidarity with striking workers at Amazon fighting for dignity, respect, and their fair share.
.@amazon must treat workers with dignity and respect, and allow workers to unionize and come to contracts in the U.S. and across the globe. We stand in #Solidarity with striking Amazon workers today.

The city has delayed our current negotiations on in-service health care for months, and it has become apparent that this administration isn't willing to continue this work in good faith. Any move by the city to try to put premiums on health coverage will result in an all-out war.
