Districts 16 and 32 Meet the President
UFT President Michael Mulgrew led a discussion about education reform policies, the Friedrichs case before the Supreme Court and how the same rich and powerful interest group is behind both these efforts to disenfranchise educators during a Meet the President event for members from Districts 16 and 32 on Feb 10 at the Sugarhill Restaurant and Supper Club, a historic landmark in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn.
