Let’s REMEMBER How THEY Voted When They Ask for OUR Vote!

The Senate voted to confirm Betsy DeVos as education secretary. For the first time in Senate history, Vice President Mike Pence voted to break the tie in a confirmation vote.

We, as public educators, must remember how we vote affects our schools, our students, our colleagues, and our community. If you voted for Senator Cassidy or Senator Kennedy, you voted against yourself and those you vow to serve.

Let’s do better in the future by electing those who advocate for us and our profession. It is our duty to uphold the PROMISE OF PUBLIC EDUCATION. Let’s remember how they voted when they ask for our vote!
