Practical Solutions Over Partisanship
Our movement is dedicated to prioritizing results-oriented policies that address real-world problems. We reject divisive partisan politics and strive to work across party lines to achieve meaningful progress for our communities and nation.
Collaboration Over Confrontation
We believe in the power of unity and shared values. We are committed to bridging divides, fostering respectful dialogue, and working together to find solutions that benefit everyone.
Strengthening Democratic Institutions
A thriving democracy requires strong institutions. We are committed to supporting and enhancing public education, ensuring fair elections, and promoting transparent governance to uphold the integrity of our democracy.
Local Focus, National Impact
Change starts at the local level. We listen to and address the concerns of our local communities, focusing on policies that have tangible impacts on daily lives, while understanding their significance on a national scale.
Transparency and Accountability
Trust is built on transparency. Our movement emphasizes the importance of clear communication, accountability, and ensuring that decisions are made openly and responsibly, with the best interests of the people in mind.
Civic Engagement
An engaged citizenry is the foundation of a strong democracy. We are dedicated to promoting civic education, encouraging active participation, and empowering all members of our community to contribute to the democratic process.
We are New York state's teachers, and we're calling for a return to politics where democracy, compromise and healthy debate are valued once again... just like we teach our students in the classroom.
