Teacher appreciation is about more than leaving a card on a teacher's desk, it's about showing consistent respect for the profession, ensuring that teachers have a seat at the table, and paying them a livable wage.
That’s what we are doing in the Biden-Harris Administration.

Shout-out to GA Governor Brian P. Kemp for closing out #TeacherAppreciationWeek with a $2500 across-the-board teacher pay increase. Now it's time for YOU to get off X and call your elected leaders to do so too! teachersalaryproject.org/takeaction atlantanewsfirst.com/2024/05/07/gov…

Shout-out to MO Governor Mike Parson for closing out #TeacherAppreciationWeek by raising minimum teacher pay from $25K to $40K - still too low but a 60% raise! Now it's time for YOU to get off X and call your elected leaders to do so too! teachersalaryproject.org fox2now.com/news/missouri/…

If you are a teacher or you support teachers, please feel free to share what needs to change before there aren’t any teachers left. #IfWeAppreciatedTeachers

President Biden continues to call on Congress to give public school teachers a raise.

They deserve it.

“Even skeptical economists have a soft spot for a radical increase in teacher pay bc it calls attention to a pressing problem…It's a good use of $…And perhaps would encourage talented college graduates to consider teaching.”washingtonpost.com/opinions/2024/…
