Local 888 leaders and staff joined thousands of teachers and school support personnel for a rally on May 20 on the Boston Common against efforts by Trump, DeVos, Baker and Peyser to gut our public education system. Speakers demanded full funding, debt-free higher education and the schools our communities deserve. The rally was sponsored by Massachusetts Education Justice Alliance a coalition of parents, students, educators, and community and labor allies.
