Sign up for the April 21 bus trip to Sacramento to participate in the last day of the rally and march.

On March 5, a diverse coalition of labor, education, and faith groups embarked on a "March for California's Future."

On Wednesday, April 21, join with thousands of union members and students for a march and mass rally in Sacramento, to protest cuts to education and social services. UTLA is sending a delegation and is currently taking reservations to participate in this last day of the march. UTLA will provide transportation and meals. To sign up, send an email to Apaulo Malloy at amalloy@utla.net or call (213) 368-6259. Include your first and last name, employee number, cell phone number, and email address. Once signed up, you will be contacted with more details.

WHY TAKE PART?
Over $20 billion has been slashed from the state budget over the past two years. Residents are facing painful cuts in public education, health services, safety programs, and infrasctructure. We deserve better. All Californians should have safe and enriching schools, clean and secure streets, affordable health care and decent jobs. That is why an unprecedented, broad coalition has come together to demand a brighter future, including additional funding for education and vital social services.
Fight for California's Future!
