America’s strength—and our union’s strength—has always come from the idea that we are stronger together. Across our schools, our hospitals, and our neighborhoods, we care, we teach, and we fight for each other.
Today, that solidarity matters more than ever. As forces try to divide and weaken our communities, we are standing together to defend the dignity of every family, protect immigrant communities, and keep the promise of opportunity alive. Now is the time to act—to fight for a country that lives up to its ideals and ensures that every child and every family can thrive. —Randi Weingarten
