WHAT'S NEW: Detroit Federation of Teachers Stands in Solidarity with United Teachers Los Angeles (UTLA)

On Monday, January 14 we are encouraging all members to stand in solidarity with United Teachers Los Angeles (UTLA) as they walk the picket line by wearing red -- #RedForEd. Our brothers and sisters in UTLA are striking for smaller class sizes and smaller case loads; more counselors, more nurses, and other key personnel to help support students; and fair and competitive wages. UTLA members work hard and are battling against a millionaire superintendent who doesn't understand the needs of public schools, the students and educators.
