At 37 days of the "Not War," the US could have spent the same amount of money to pay the salaries of all the public school teachers in Texas and New York, combined, for one year.

North Carolina teachers are still paid below the national average.
When we underpay educators, students pay the price.

The government has openly attacked our educational system for decades.
We are at the mercy of the lowest common denominator.

Why pay teachers a living wage when we can spend millions on each robot that requires costly maintenance?

No one should be taking a pay cut while prices are climbing everywhere you look, especially not school teachers. But because Phil Berger & Destin Hall are 9 months late with a state budget, that's exactly what's happening in North Carolina. #ncpol #ncga #passabudget #payteachers
While our rent, bills, health insurance, child care, and stress levels rise, we are expected to keep showing up everyday and handling our responsibilities. So why do our North Carolina lawmakers get to fumble all of theirs? #ncpol #passabudget #payteachers #fundmedicaid

#PayTeachers, MAGA Republicans want a society of poorly educated people. Why? knowledge is power, thus public education is an enemy of the State.
Selfie is NC senate district 25 candidate Southey Blanton showing off his voting sticker. He is also wearing a cool shirt that will soon be available for purchase. They are super comfy and locally made.
Image with dates about how early voting ends February 28th
Early voting is happening until the 28th and today I got to cast my vote.
Thank you to the poll workers who made the process smooth and simple.
Good luck to every candidate and thank you for stepping up and running. #southey4senate #fundschools #payteachers #passabudget #voteearly
Another week, another classroom to support.
Let’s share and donate to make sure teachers and students know we are supporting them while they wait for a budget.

Squid wars watching a happy SpongeBob and Patrick from his window. Squid wars is nc teachers waiting on a raise. SpongeBob is Mississippi teachers who just got a raise
If Mississippi can raise teacher pay and also block vouchers that destroy public schools, then we can too. #payteachers #fundpublicschools #passabudget #southey4senate

Happy Presidents’ Day. There were many leaders through the years who knew how important public education was to the future of our country. #southey4senate #payteachers #fundpublicschools #passabudget

Happy Valentine's Day Everyone!
It'd be SWEET if we had a state budget here in NC.
I'd LOVE to see teachers get a raise this year.
How AMAZING would it be if our state government actually funded schools?

Just pay teachers more fucking money. Stop with this incentive bullshit. #Missouri #PayTeachers
We still don’t have a budget in NC.
Teacher pay hasn’t changed, you know what did? Their health insurance premiums.
Starting today we will be featuring a classroom each week as we help teachers while they wait for a budget. #payteachers #fundschools #passabudget #southey4senate
An image on Southey 4 Senate letter head with "My Plan for Fighting for Our Future" with a bullet list of items Southey will push for in office. Fully fund public schools, increase teacher pay, increase pay for support staff, expand pre-K and child care programs, and stop the expansion of vouchers.
My entire campaign is about making sure NC public schools and the teachers, staff, and students that attend them get the funding and help they need. #southey4senate #fundpublicschools #fundleandro #payteachers
A sign for Amy Galey placed directly in front of a wrong way sign by either a vindictive campaign volunteer/saboteur or by someone who was definitely not paying attention.
I’m not one to look to universe for signs very often. But the fact that I’m running for office and I discovered this picture from 6 years ago feels like the universe telling me it’s the right time to try. #southey4senate #fundpublicachools #payteachers #letsturnthisthingaround #NCSD25
That's not your fault. Teaching is hard and our administrations don't make it any easier.
Teachers don't get paid enough. Not nearly enough to risk their lives. They have to worry about whether a student will lose their shit and shoot up the school. Or maybe their parents will.

Danielle Smith choosing policy and to do list by throwing a hatchet
Axe The Vax Tax
Looks like Dani’s policy planning involves a blindfold and a hatchet. Maybe instead of axing at random, she could axe the bans, axe the vax tax, and axe those clawbacks too. #Ableg #Abpoli #AxeTheVaxTax #stopCDBclawback #payteachers #ABed

Things I did and ate at the MN State Fair. I also caught the parade on my way out and saw my school’s robotics team. Go Tommies! #mathonastick #mnstatefair #endofsummer #payteachers
I just did my August repeat:
I helped each and every one of my friends who teach public school buy supplies for their students.
EVERY AUGUST this is what I do.
Pay teachers ICE salaries.
Give veteran teachers ICE bonuses.

These policies are all common sense and, to be honest, should just be something we all agree on. I think most people would agree our schools deserve more resources, and I will work to make this a reality for everyone in my district.

Same time I haven’t been this exhausted in years. #PayTeachers. This is rough. Wonderful. But rough.
Finally done. 🤦♀️ Bless elementary school teachers. They could get a million dollars a day and it wouldn't be enough. #payteachers
