If your monthly payment went up or you lost access to an affordable repayment plan because of Trump’s One Big Bill, we want to hear from you. Share your story: protectborrowers.org/one-big-bill...

Student loan borrowers are being pushed off SAVE & many will have their payments automatically recalculated. That doesn't mean every payment will be right. When millions of accounts are changing at once, mistakes happen, and borrowers shouldn't have to pay the price. www.forbes.com/sites/adammi...

Charges against @seiu.org USWW President David Huerta have been dropped! This administration cannot silence people who exercise their constitutional right to peacefully stand up for working families and the safety of their communities. www.politico.com/news/2026/07...

Great to hear @ctulocal1.bsky.social and @iftaft.bsky.social President Stacy Davis Gates make a powerful case for securing the funding Chicago students need to succeed and stand up for educators whose jobs are threatened by potential cuts. www.pbs.org/video/chicag...

14 years ago we launched @sharemylesson.bsky.social with a simple idea: educators are stronger when we share with one another. Today, it's a free community where millions of educators can find high-quality lessons, collaborate with colleagues and support students. 🥳 bsky.app/profile/shar...

$4.10/gallon gas. Falling consumer confidence. This is what Trump and Republicans delivered instead of the affordability they promised — warmongering, tax cuts for billionaires, and working families footing the bill. apnews.com/article/econ...

More than 1/3 of working-age adults used a credit card to buy groceries last year & many couldn't pay the balance in full. Americans are ending up with years of high-interest debt for meals they finished long ago. That's the reality of an affordability crisis. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Trump & his allies proposed a rule to put political appointees in charge of federal grant funding - a move that could slow or stop the scientific & medical research we depend on to stay healthy. Tell your senators: Reject this rule ASAP. actionnetwork.org/letters/omb-... @aft.org @aaup.org

Teaching is an inherently human endeavor. It’s not just about what educators are helping kids to learn, it’s about building trust and connection. Melinda Person is right - a robot simply can’t replace a teacher. @nysut.bsky.social bsky.app/profile/aft....

Student loan borrowers, public schools & working families are paying the price for Trump's policies while billionaires get another tax break. I talked with @billpress.bsky.social about what's at stake, why we're fighting back and what we need to do ahead of Nov. Listen here: bit.ly/Click-2-Listen

This is one of my favorite recent moments of being with my Ukrainian family and allies. I’m proud of AFT members for understanding the significance of our union’s international solidarity. www.facebook.com/ukrainehouse...

Good news that lawmakers are standing with Ukraine. AFT has worked with Ukrainians for several years, including humanitarian relief, delivering supplies to students and educators & working with international labor allies to fight for peace and democracy. www.politico.com/news/2026/07...

When Trump took office, he said day one he was bringing down costs. By ending the Medicare Part D subsidy, he's abandoning that promise and leaving 25 million Americans struggling to pay for the meds they need to survive, all so the GOP can cut taxes for the rich. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/28/b...

Huge news for Arizona! A judge ruled this anti-union measure unconstitutional, so it won't appear on the November ballot. The GOP-backed proposal would have banned collective bargaining for government workers and blocked school districts from supporting union activities. azmirror.com/2026/07/28/a...

NYSUT is right. There needs to be guardrails and every one of these questions needs an answer. This is exactly why I called for guardrails in my speech in May. www.nysut.org/news/2026/ju...

Such a smart piece-that’s if we want to get sh#t done for working families and thwart authoritarianism nymag.com/intelligence...

My heartbreaks every time there’s a mass shooting. My prayers are with the victims and community in Seattle. We should never accept mass shootings as normal, the time for common sense gun violence prevention is now. www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

Love seeing my friend Robert (Zimmerman) That’s what summers are for- He would have been a great Congressman

History doesn’t become untrue just because an administration doesn’t like it. In order for us to grow as a nation and truly become the more perfect union the founders aspired to, we must learn from our past - the good, the bad, and the ugly. www.washingtonpost.com/style/2026/0...
