There was a time when public service meant stability and a real path to the middle class. That's not what people see anymore.
If we want to recruit and keep great public workers, we have to fix Tier 6.

No Kings then. No Kings now. Great to be in Buffalo today standing up for democracy union style💪 @aft.org @uupinfo.bsky.social @aflcio.org
Buffalo showed up today. ✊
Working people united, standing up for what matters — our democracy, our Constitution, our voice.
No kings then. No kings now. Thank you for showing up NYSUT, @aft.org @aflcio.org , @uupinfo.bsky.social
Public schools are the heart of our communities — and they deserve to be protected, not drained.
#NYSUT has been clear: unchecked charter expansion pulls critical funding from our public schools, lacks transparency, and sidelines the voices of local taxpayers. So proud of our members!
NYS Comptroller Thomas P. DiNapoli says New York State can do more to Fix Tier 6 – with one of the most well funded pension systems in the country, we can do better for our public service workers who take care of us!
Honored to speak at #NYSUT BIPOC Pathways to Leadership this weekend.
The future of our union is stronger, more inclusive, and more powerful because of you.
THIS is exactly why we need to Fix Tier 6.
Standing with our union siblings in UUP to call for the funding our campuses need. Students at SUNY Buffalo State University, SUNY Fredonia, SUNY Potsdam & SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry deserve investment.

Any social studies teacher teaches that there should be a social contract that if you work hard and play by the rules, you + your family will be okay. NY must #FixTier6 and strengthen pensions for public workers. @melindajperson.bsky.social cbs6albany.com/news/local/n...
Comptroller Tom DiNapoli in the house! #FixTier6 @nyscomptroller.bsky.social
Great things happen when we get together! #FixTier6 @nysut.bsky.social @nysaflcio.bsky.social @uupinfo.bsky.social @melindajperson.bsky.social @governor.ny.gov
New York has an obligation to #FixTier6! - @rweingarten.bsky.social
LISA ANN WALTER IS IN THE HOUSE TO FIX TIER 6!!!!
This is about fixing a promise made to our public sector workers. We are here in solidarity today to FIX TIER 6! @nysaflcio.bsky.social @aft.org @rweingarten.bsky.social @uft.org @nyspef.bsky.social
New York is leading the nation in protecting kids online thanks to the leadership of @governor.ny.gov. From the SAFE for Kids Act to stronger data protections, AI guardrails and a bell-to-bell cellphone ban in schools, she’s putting kids first. 💙

Even Andrew Cuomo, the creator of Tier 6, wants to #FixTier6
We won’t quit until we FIX TIER 6!
If you know me, you know I LOVE Career & Technical Education.
CTE Month is a reminder of what I see in classrooms across New York: CTE programs WORK — opening doors, inspiring passion & preparing students for real futures.
Here’s to educators, students & communities building opportunity every day.
AI is evolving fast—but the skills our public schools and colleges build matter more than ever: critical thinking, communication, empathy, and the humanities, which teach students to question, interpret, and understand the human experience.

The Supreme Court struck down the federal administration’s unlawful import tariffs — a hidden tax that drove up prices and squeezed working families.
Working people deserve lower costs, accountability, and a government that respects the Constitution.

Community schools provide proven supports (counseling, housing, & healthcare) that raise graduation rates & expand opportunity.
Instead of investing in what works, disinvestment & cuts to funding threaten student success and deepen inequities. When we invest in community schools, students thrive.
BREAKING: The Department of Education has ended its directive that attempted to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts in schools nationwide.
This is a victory for academic freedom and education equity.
After months of showing up, speaking out, and standing together, the fight to Fix Tier 6 leads us to Albany on March 8. This is about fairness, dignity, and a retirement system that respects a lifetime of public service.
30 years should be a career.
#FixTier6
This week at the Capitol, NYSUT hosted a panel discussion and screening of a short film about childhood poverty and the power of community schools.
We can’t spill the tea yet ☕️
But to the teachers watching the game, grading papers during commercials…
this surprise guest on 3/8 is for you.
Stay tuned 👀🍎
Fit check: head over to nysutstore.org to grab the coziest union apparel from sweats and hats to hoodies. Because staying warm is easier when you’re wrapped in union colors. #NYSUTProud #UnionStrong
I’m running for reelection as president of NYSUT.
Because listening matters.
Showing up matters.
And results matter.
I’m still all in. And we’re just getting started. ✊🔥
Trying to explain what’s happening in the world to kids isn’t easy, but it matters. This post hits home - a dozen things I’m saying to my kids that reflect our family values.
