We Will Not Yield: Kids Over Corporations

The nc general assembly must choose:

Our kids - or their corporate interests?

Join us for our next webinar: o2020.us/BudgetPrep

The NCGA must make a choice: will they provide adequate funding for public education? Or will they continue to starve our schools and communities while providing tax cuts for wealthy corporations?

North Carolina's legislators adjourned without a budget to fund our schools, but North Carolina’s educators and families are ready for action. We’re emboldened by the unity of educators and communities in Los Angeles and Chicago. We're inspired by the electoral wins of our neighbors in Virginia and Kentucky. Those victories were the result of years of sustained organizing and strategic action. Let’s take this next step together, for our students and for each other.

Here's how you can help right now:

1. Sign and share the petition: o2020.us/KidsNotCorporations

2. Organize your workplace to sign

3. Organize a #Red4Ed picket

4. Join us for our next webinar: o2020.us/BudgetPrep

5. Pass out flyers on Black Friday: Unfunded schools are an emergency. Call a special session!
