@PSulliv @TishJames I really don't understand @UFT staying out of this one. Their support could def be the difference maker.

Seriously though... @TishJames has been one of the strongest advocates for public education on the council for years.

Hey @UFT can you add an endorsement of @TishJames to the DA agenda tomorrow? I honestly have no idea why you never endorsed her..

      @PSulliv @lapham_katie certainly not the type you want to be your "advocate" against special interests.

   @PSulliv as you saw firsthand @TishJames actually stood up publicly against the privatization movement on my occasions.

If you haven't seen James' speech challenging ed deform at a PEP, check it out.

Squadron, as one of our parent activists reported is pretty bad:

• Schumer boy
• Madoff money won and lost
• Married to a Bloomberg gov administrator
• Takes charter $$
• DFER$$
• Tisch $$
• etc.
