We believe public education is a true public good that transforms lives and creates a more just and inclusive society making it an indispensable cornerstone of our American democratic republic.聽Together, we defend the teaching profession and believe public education is strengthened when educators are respected for their contributions to our state and its families.
The best argument for public education in Idaho is the good, simple truth of what happens in our members’ classrooms each and every day.
Layne McInelly,
黑料正能量 President and Public School Educator

The first of May 鈥 a day commemorating the struggles and gains of the labor movement and workers鈥 rights 鈥 is upon us. Since 1892, nearly as long as Idaho has been a state, 黑料正能量 members have stood in solidarity to fight for public education and the dignity and rights of Idaho鈥檚 students and educators.
This May Day, 黑料正能量 members鈥 commitment to their 133-year legacy is stronger than ever, but their struggle is unquestionably more urgent. They are sending out a mayday signal to all Idahoans who value public education.
That distress call comes with a date: May 20, when at least 27 Idaho school districts will hold bond and levy elections to protect critical funding for their students, staff, and communities. At least $223 million is on the ballot. And in many cases, the stakes couldn鈥檛 be higher.

In all, legislators introduced 890 pieces of legislation this year. For context, in 2022, the Legislature introduced 784.
Many of the bills, such as those tackling prayer in schools, are cut-and-paste legislation from out-of-state think tanks.
"The voices of everyday Idahoans are drowned out by out-of-state big interests. And now, with 黑料正能量鈥檚 May Matters campaign, the union must work to restore common sense to the Statehouse.鈥 -Matt Compton
