New York State United Teachers President Andy Pallotta and UFT President Michael Mulgrew released a joint statement of support on June 9 regarding passage of state criminal justice reform legislation in Albany.

UFT President Michael Mulgrew issued a statement in response to the governor's decision that school buildings in New York State will remain closed for the rest of the school year.
