Throughout NY state, parents, students, and teachers have rallied to protect our public schools. Yet the Governor has called these peaceful protests “a tantrum of special interests,” adding: “Frankly, the louder special interests scream ... the more we know we’re right.”

We need to send a message to the Governor and our State Legislators right now that parents are NOT a special interest. We have ONLY two weeks before the budget bill is due. We cannot allow our precious resources to be siphoned off to allow Cuomo and his billionaire donors attain their goal of privatizing our public schools.

So please send this message to the Governor, the leaders of the Legislature, and your State Senator and Assemblymember. Feel free to edit the message any way you’d like, to add more details about what your child’s school needs.
