The Chicago Teachers Union Stands Strong. Rally May 23rd at the Auditorium Theater.

Historic Rally in support of a fair contract with the CTU.

May 23rd.

Auditorium Theatre
50 East Congress
CTU Members Only

Please bring membership card or paystub

Doors Open at 3:00pm
Rally Begins at 4:30pm
March follows

Join with thousands of CTU members for a huge membership meeting, to be followed by a short march and rally downtown. CTU Officers will share important bargaining updates and our members will have important decisions to make.

If we don’t come together and fight for good schools and a fair contract, we will lose many of the rights we currently have. If we allow CPS to continue to disrespect our profession, they will pile on even more demand on our schools without any resources. Every year they come after more- enough is enough. We are fighting to save public education!

WEAR YOUR CTU RED!

Please RSVP below. However, note that admittance will be on a first come, first served basis. Only the first 4,000 CTU members will be admitted to the theater. Online signup does not guarantee admittance to the theater.

An outdoor overflow rally will include speeches by officers, labor and community leaders, parents, and students, along with musical performances.

Register for the event.
