Michigan’s teachers’ unions will gather in Lansing Wednesday in an effort to get lawmakers to pass a budget.
The American Federation of Teachers-Michigan and Michigan Education Association “lobby day” happens just a week before the state deadline to pass a budget. Public schools, community colleges and public universities have started the academic year without information about their funding.
If the Republican House and Democratic Senate don’t agree on a budget by October 1, the state government could shut down.
AFT President Randi Weingarten will discuss state and federal education issues at a public education town hall at Eastpointe High School Monday. For more information visit aftmichigan.org.
