Hi Hi there,
Some of the best conversations I have with my two teenage boys happen in the car, usually on the way to a hockey rink. Somewhere between blasting hype songs and negotiating snack stops (the youngest always wants a chocolate shake after a game), they let me in on what’s really going on. These drives remind me that conversations where we connect don’t always happen in big moments. Sometimes, it’s at a rest stop on the Massachusetts Turnpike.

In this issue , you’ll see how NEA stood with Colorado educators during their strike to restore collective bargaining rights, helped members understand students’ rights in the face of immigration raids, and supported Arizona teachers pushing back against excessive standardized testing. That’s the power of solidarity: making sure you have the support you need to do what you do best.
So, here’s to a year of creativity and connection—whether you’re in the classroom or behind the wheel—find time to crank up your favorite hype song and make it a year worth remembering.
In solidarity,
Giovanna Bechard
