Truly no words on how furious I am at my union @UFT. Educators are forced back into schools buildings 9/8, a few days after UFT said it was unsafe to go back, then after striking a backroom deal w/ @NYCMayor. @UFTUnity shame on you. People will die on your watch. #wewontdieforDOE
Still haven't gotten our school building inspection report even tho @UFT Prez Mulgrew promised we'd have it today. People are saying it might not come til Saturday. We're supposed to go in-person Tuesday. @UFTUnity what you agreed to is not okay. #OnlyWhenItsSafe #wewontdieforDOE
We STILL don't have a clear idea how a @NYCSchools plan that hasn't been figured out in the past 2 months (or 2 weeks for that matter) will be figured out in another two weeks. We have no money. We don't have the staff to do their convoluted plans. It's NOT SAFE. #wewontdieforDOE
No wonder this is such a mess: @NYCSchools has been negotiated by men. With exception of @DOEChancellor, @NYCMayor & presidents of @FollowCSA @DistCouncil37 & @UFT are all white men. When teachers are 80% women. Paras & other workers are BIPOC. Our input hasn't been heard at all.
Parents (@safeschoolsny), educators like me, teachers union caucuses (@MOREcaucusUFT), CECs (@council_14), elected officials, principals in districts, custodial workers, nurses, all saying this @NYCSchools reopening plan is unsafe. We won't stop: it's our duty to keep us safe.
Truly no words to tell how furious, ashamed, angry I am at @NYCMayor @DOEChancellor @NYCSchools @UFT @FollowCSA @DistCouncil37 for not protecting NYC. On the City Council @MarkTreyger718 hearing doctors said THERE WILL BE A 2ND WAVE IF YOU OPEN SCHOOLS. LISTEN!! #wewontdieforDOE
AND Follow NYC School Workers Solidarity Campaign on social media! Thanks for standing up for the safety of all New Yorkers. It means so much to us school workers.

@NYCSchools staff like me are terrified. The rage comes from knowing this schools reopening didn't have to be like this if @NYCMayor @DOEChancellor @UFT put our safety 1st all along. We had months to make a workable plan. There's no plan; now there's no trust. #wewontdieforDOE
It's Saturday and I STILL haven't seen our school building inspection report. It's a holiday weekend and there's ZERO BUSINESS DAYS TIL WE HAVE TO REPORT TO WORK. Shame on you @UFT @UFTUnity @NYCMayor for agreeing to this unsafe @NYCSchools plan: you WILL get people sick. Shame.
