Another HUGE piece of legislation on its way to @GovTimWalz: the labor bill! THANK YOU Rep. Michael Nelson @SydneyJordanMN @JenMcEwenMN @grant_hauschild for all your work to make Minnesota the BEST state for workers -- including educators! #mnleg #edmnvotes

🎉🎉🎉Paid leave for all just passed the Senate and now heads to @GovTimWalz for his signature!! And it INCLUDES EDUCATORS ACROSS MINNESOTA. #mnleg #edmnvotes #paidleavemn

300-plus educators — including some who drove 3-plus hours one way to be here tonight with a united message for @GovTimWalz @melissahortman @KariDziedzic: Don’t adjourn session without addressing pensions!! #mnleg #fairpensionsnow – at St Paul, MN

Every educator deserves the ability to retire with financial security. Join us Tuesday as we march on the Capitol for pension reform: edmn.me/42ADtxU #mnleg #fairpensionsnow

Fair pension reform is a top priority for Minnesota teachers. Tell state leaders not to adjourn until they address this critical recruitment and retention issue: edmn.me/3pCMAzl #mnleg #edmnvotes #fairpensionsnow

Now more than ever, educators need more than appreciation. They need our support. Sign the #TeacherAppreciationWeek pledge: edmn.me/3kqvQFF #mnleg #edmnvotes #thankateacher

This #NationalTeacherDay, let's celebrate them a little less and care for them a whole lot more. Less talk, more action. #mnleg #edmnvotes #fundourschools

The state’s share of education funding hasn’t kept pace with inflation for almost two decades. Minnesota has the resources to reverse this trend by tying the funding formula to inflation moving forward. #mnleg #edmnvotes

Solidarity with the office professional members of Education Minnesota St. Francis who filed their intent to strike today over a living wage and affordable health insurance. These 21 hourly school workers are 86,000 strong with the backing of @EducationMN members statewide. ✊ – at St Paul, MN

Research proves it: students do better when they see themselves in what they learn. Way to go, Burnsville! #mnleg #edmnvotes mprnews.org/story/2023/04/26…

September marks 25 years since the historic merger of the MEA and MFT to become Education Minnesota. The risks our leaders took back then have made for the powerful, statewide union we have today. Listen to some reflections from those involved: youtu.be/6WSmpzLU_g0

"Teachers invest their time, energy and whole selves into our classrooms and our students. We are now asking Minnesota for an investment in teachers." - 2022 Minnesota Teacher of the Year Sarah Lancaster #mnleg #edmnvotes

MN used to have one of the best teacher pension plans in the country. Now it ranks among the least flexible and hardest to use. We also have the third highest normal retirement age for teachers. @CwodMN urges the LCPR to start righting that wrong by passing his new bill. #mnleg
