Elizabeth Botella is right. "It's not about the money." It's about respecting the rights of the TAXPAYERS! You know. Those 80,000 people that are paying the tab. It's also about respecting the teachers who have been working without a contract, not knowing if today is their last day, for almost three years now!

Raise your hand if you would work under those conditions. Raise them up high so I can count them all. That's right. There aren't any hands to count. I'm not saying that the teachers need a "platinum" contract, just a signed one.

As the endorsed Democrat for Mayor I promised to "work every day until we had a new contract". I maintain that promise today, and when the Mayor gets back from vacation please tell him I said that. This is sickening and it's ruining the reputation of our City. If Avedisian doesn't fix this, I will. And I won't stop until it is fixed. I hope the Mayor hears me. I know the teachers and the taxpayers do and 2018 is around the corner.

Happy Summer everyone.
