We’re forever proud of the work AFT Massachusetts members put in to make the Fair Share Amendment a reality! Thank you to Gov. Healey and the Massachusetts House and Senate for delivering another supplemental budget investing Fair Share funds in our public schools and transit.
With Gov. Healey’s signature, the Fair Share Supplemental Budget is law!
Today’s supp budget will provide critical, mid-year funds for public schools & transit, as well as funding contracts for our members at UMass Dartmouth—just as the voters intended when they passed the Fair Share Amendment.
THANK YOU to everyone who joined us to march in this year’s Boston’s pride parade w/ AFT MA & @btu66.bsky.social—especially our union kids contingent!—& everyone who cheered for educators, paras, librarians, & union members across the route! Today was an act of joy, love, protest, and resistance.
Toi Derricotte told us, “JOY is an act of resistance.” Nowhere is this more true than Boston Pride for the People. 💙

To our queer students and to young people everywhere: we see you and we love you. You will ALWAYS be welcome in our classrooms, libraries, and hospitals. And we will never stop fighting for you. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️

Massachusetts MUST hold the line.
