The White House
Happy National Teacher Appreciation Week!
I made you a promise: that as long as Joe is President, you will always have a seat at the table. And I meant it.
Because being an educator isn't just a job. It's a calling. All of you were called to this profession for a reason. You believe that a better world is possible - and you make that world real, one student at a time.
And none of that could happen without the support of our unions.
In classrooms and hallways and cafeterias, in front of eager faces during that Friday afternoon chaos, it may sometimes feel like we're all alone. But our union leaders show us that we're never alone - that behind each of us are thousands of educators in schools across the country united through a common devotion to our students. I'm grateful for all that they do for educators - and our students.
So, I'm honored to introduce, Becky Pringle and Randi Weingarten.
