Urgent Action Needed: Call Now to Support Collective Bargaining!

The Senate will soon vote on a bill to allow collective bargaining for public employees, including educators, in Virginia. But representatives of school boards and local governments are trying to block us. AND THEY’RE WINNING!

We need your help RIGHT NOW to get this historic bill passed.

CALL YOUR SENATOR RIGHT AWAY!

Tell your Senator:

  • I am a teacher/ESP/ in your local public schools and I work very hard to provide the best opportunities for our students.
  • We need a strong collective bargaining bill in Virginia to make sure that my voice and the voice of my colleagues is heard when we advocate for things like smaller class sizes and adequate resources in the classrooms.
  • We need collective bargaining for public employees to improve learning and working conditions, as well as make sure that we are able to recruit and retain the very best to work in our schools.
  • I am a constituent, and I urge you to support a strong collective bargaining bill.
