Now we know what Senate Majority Leader John Flanagan really thinks.  In a recent radio interview, Senator Flanagan complained about NYSUT's efforts to fight to defend educators, saying we're one of the "forces of evil" fighting for reform in Albany. That's right: he thinks we're evil. That must be why he and his colleagues chose to turn their backs on educators so they could cozy up to Wall Street billionaires and the charter industry.

Senator John Flanagan has consistently opposed and blocked key initiatives and investments that could have helped strengthen public schools, while at the same time working to undermine and threaten the rights and financial security of working people.

Now, by grossly insulting hard-working, dedicated educators all across the state, Senator Flanagan has made it clear that as long as he remains the Senate Majority Leader, educators and working people will never get a fair shake. But you and I can do something about that.

We are now just weeks away from the November election, and we can be the difference in the outcome! Will you help?

In solidarity.
