Teachers in Chicago protest outside schools as protracted negotiations over a new contract fail to produce a deal
CHICAGO - Teachers in the Chicago Public Schools system picketed outside of schools on Thursday during their first day of a strike after protracted labor negotiations between the union and district leadership failed to produce a deal.
“I’m hopeful. I’m here to stand up for teachers and the future teachers,” said Pamela Wasson, a bilingual special education teacher in her 34th year of teaching, as she picketed in front of her North Side elementary school. Flanked by dozens of teachers and parents outside a North Side elementary school, union president Jesse Sharkey said he expected to “keep making progress” in negotiations on Thursday.Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot said on Wednesday the district’s bargaining team has offered 80 changes to the current contract related to issues that the union wants to be addressed.
