Dear D230 IEA Members,
Our local is sponsoring and organizing this rally. I need your support once again!!! We need to have as many teachers, administrators and Esp’s as possible to come to the rally. Last time we had 200 people show up at the rally, let’s beat that mark!
We need to show our legislators and make our voices heard. I am retiring at age 55, will you be able to retire at the same age? Please give up one or two hours of your time for our profession. Protect our pensions and our benefits!!!
Sincerely,
Carrie Cox

4-6 PM
Free Speech Pavilion, corner of Webster and Jackson in Naperville.
Following the rally: March to State Representative Darlene Senger’s office. One block to 125 Water Street in Naperville.
Protests in front by members. Deals behind closed doors by leaders.
Tim Furman was up in Evanston yesterday at a protest outside Democratic State Representative Robyn Gabel and State Senator Jeffrey Schoenberg’s offices.
As Furman points out, many of these characters are playing the “I haven’t seen the bill” game.
And IFT’s director of research, Bob Shaevel, confirms that the so-called labor coalition, including the IEA, have been meeting behind closed doors offering concessions.
