NYSNA Stands in Solidarity with Federation of Teachers of Puerto Rico

NYSNA stands in solidarity with the Federation of Teachers of Puerto Rico (FMPR) as they lead teachers, students, and parents in a one-day work stoppage to protest:

• Hundreds of baseless school closings 
• Privatization of public education and “reform” changes
• Educational chaos across the country as a result
• Stagnation of repairs of school plants, even one year after the Hurricane 
• Abrogation of labor laws that compensate and protect school workers
• Unilateral changes to pensions

As nurses, we applaud them for taking a stand for their students. We know you’ll win.
