#RedForEd Day of Action at the State Capitol
Register below: Speak out for public education!
Join us in Sacramento on May 22 for the statewide #RedForEd Day of Action in support of public education! Join educators, parents, students, and community allies from across the state to demand funding for our schools, colleges, and universities and to protect our schools from the billionaire privatizers! The day’s tentative schedule is below.
About the CFT Home Base: The central meeting point for CFT members will be on the Capitol grounds near the corner of 12th and L. Streets. T-shirts, materials, snacks, water, and a light lunch will be available for members who have registered in advance. There will also be a shaded area with chairs for members to rest during the day.
