When schools get cut, who pays the price?
The Executive Budget proposal for education would devastate New York’s public schools and reverse the progress we’ve made in education, from pre-kindergarten through post-grad. New Yorkers overwhelmingly support raising the income tax on the wealthy to protect vital public services and oppose cuts to education and health care.
Do the right thing: Ask our wealthiest citizens to pay their fair share. Don’t balance the budget on the backs of our neediest children. New York State United Teachers represents more than 600,000 professionals in education and health care.
