“In reaching agreement on a new, tentative contract, the UFT once again showed it pays to belong to a union. All through the negotiations process, the UFT emphasized three R’s – recruitment, retention and respect for teachers – and emerged with a deal that is good for its members, good for the city and, most importantly, good for students in the city’s public schools. I congratulate UFT President Michael Mulgrew, his negotiating team and the entire membership on this accomplishment.”
