Episode 24: We Can't Wait: Inside the CA Statewide Educators Campaign
from On the Line
California educators have recently launched the We Can't Wait campaign, a statewide coordinated effort by educator unions covering nearly 80k educators and over one million students, making it the largest educator campaign in the country's history. Despite CA having the largest economy in the country, the state ranks 33rd for per pupil education spending. Educator unions are demanding their city, state, and federal government provide the resources needed for a quality public education system. On the Line interviewed Cassondra Curiel, President of United Educators of San Francisco, and Nathalie Hrizi, the VP of Substitutes of UESF. Both are leaders in the statewide campaign and spoke to us about how UESF and educators across the state are preparing to stand up for public education and fight for what their colleagues and students deserve.
