Mark your calendars!
IT is time to put people over profits
While the top 5% in our state are getting massive handouts from Trump, teachers and school staff, higher education workers, and public employees are being asked to do more with less, working without the resources, respect, and dignity they deserve.
But it doesn’t have to be that way. It is time for our political conversation to be centered on those who work the hardest, not those who can afford to speak the loudest.
All across Illinois, IFT members have been showing up on Fridays, in Springfield, in their communities, demanding the full funding our students, campuses, and communities deserve. From the first Full Funding Friday to our powerful lobby days at the Capitol, IFT members have consistently made their voices impossible to ignore.
​
Your efforts are making a difference!
We’re inviting all members to join us in monthly actions on Full Funding Fridays every month leading up to May Day on May 1. These actions can include walk-ins, solidarity events, union shirt days, or other creative demonstrations that highlight our shared values and demands.
