From the JCTA website:
"JCTA and KEA have been actively engaging with our members and our legislators throughout the current legislative session. We have seen the passion and commitment from our teachers and the sacrifices they have made to ensure their voices were heard...by phone, emails, social media, and day after day at the Capitol Building...wearing red, holding signs, and chanting loudly as they lined the tunnel, the front steps, the corridors, and the galleries.
"Through this activism, as you will see below, it appears that EVERY negative provision aimed at current teachers and retirees has been eliminated from the bill with the sole exception of a cap on the number of sick days that can be used to calculate retirement benefits."

If you raised your voice to sing, thank you. If you didn't think it was possible to fight back against the system and win, now you know it is.
