More people were on the strike lines today than yesterday, and the momentum is real. The energy at Dolores Park today was incredible, even in the rain! Seriously. Tomorrow: Rain and all, folks come ready.

UESF has made progress, and we’re hopeful we’ll see another update from them soon. The District has announced schools are closed for Wednesday. Besides SEIU, UASF and Local 21 also are striking in solidarity, and the broader San Francisco community continues to show up and show love.

As we continue to strike in sympathy, this fight is also our fight for the contract we deserve; we want to be incredibly clear: We see you, we value you, and we support your decision. If you cannot afford to stay out any longer and need to return to work, we truly understand. We are a union family.

We’ve started a GoFundMe to support members who can’t afford the lost pay from striking. Please like, donate, and share if you can:

I am an SFUSD parent, an SEIU union steward, and a Community Schools Coordinator at Star King Elementary.

Members of SEIU 1021 are here and we are proud to stand with UESF and the educators at SFUSD.

We come from different professions.

We come from different neighborhoods and backgrounds, but we are all in the same fight.

We all know what thriving schools look like.

Healthy classroom sizes, livable wages, and happy, safe students.

But district management clearly doesn’t understand what it takes to make schools thrive.

That’s why we’re here today.

They push back against educators, they push back against sanctuary schools, they push back against critical special education funding, and they push back against wage increases.

They claim to be in fiscal crisis.

Meanwhile, they have a seemingly endless well for payroll systems that don’t pass, for exorbitant executive cabinet member salaries, and a raise that gave Maria Su a base salary of $385,000.

SEIU members are going unpaid to strike in solidarity with UESF because their fight is our fight.

Because we are tired of being ignored and treated like second-class citizens.

Because we are tired of paying for the district’s bad decisions.

Our members are some of the lowest-paid workers in the district that they are sacrificing because they can’t take this anymore.

We have custodians literally carrying garbage bins on their backs, up and down stairs, because the district refuses to fix elevators at their schools.

The mayor said yesterday he wanted schools to be open so our kids could be in school.

Mayor Lurie, your kids go to private school.

Please listen to the people who are actually at school sites fighting these battles every single day.

So let’s hear it for SFUSD, educators, the UESF, and everybody at the school site!

Thank you. Truly. What we witnessed today was powerful.

Thank you. Truly. What we witnessed today was powerful.

We are so proud of each and every one of you for standing shoulder to shoulder with our teacher and para siblings. Walking school sites and joining picket lines filled with purple power was inspiring. Our strength was visible and it’s growing.

Union members, families, and students showed up in force. Thousands of us rallied together at Civic Center Plaza. 

UESF and the District are bargaining tonight, and we are hopeful for good news. Until we hear more, below is what you can do to keep supporting the strike:  

  • Join the picket at your neighborhood school or your school site. 
  • There is a chance of rain tomorrow, mostly in the afternoon. 
  • Ponchos are available at the union hall, along with shirts, signs, and snacks for anyone who needs them. Please come through starting at 7:00 am (Address: 350 Rhode Island Street). We will have coffee and donuts.
  • Come to the big rally tomorrow at noon at Dolores Park.

The District is in disarray, and they are finally learning what we have always known: they cannot run without us. 

One day longer. One day stronger.

Please join the picket line tomorrow! It’s not too late.


Gracias. De verdad. Lo que presenciamos hoy fue conmovedor.

Estamos muy orgullosos de cada uno de ustedes por estar hombro con hombro con nuestros compañeros maestros y asistentes. Recorrer las escuelas y unirse a los piquetes llenos de energía violeta fue inspirador. 

Nuestra fuerza fue evidente y sigue creciendo. Los miembros del sindicato, las familias y los estudiantes se presentaron en masa. Miles de nosotros nos reunimos en la Plaza del Centro Cívico.

UESF y el Distrito están negociando esta noche, y tenemos la esperanza de recibir buenas noticias. 

Hasta que tengamos más información, a continuación les indicamos lo que pueden hacer para seguir apoyando la huelga:

  • Únanse al piquete en la escuela de su barrio o en su lugar de trabajo.
  • Hay probabilidad de lluvia mañana, principalmente por la tarde.
  • Hay ponchos disponibles en la sede del sindicato, junto con camisetas, pancartas y refrigerios para quienes los necesiten. Pueden pasar a partir de las 7:00 a. m. (Dirección: 350 Rhode Island Street). Tendremos café y donas.
  • Vengan a la gran manifestación de mañana al mediodía en Dolores Park.

El Distrito está en un caos y finalmente están aprendiendo lo que siempre hemos sabido: no pueden funcionar sin nosotros.

Un día más. Un día más fuertes.

¡Únanse al piquete mañana! Todavía están a tiempo.


谢谢。我们今天目睹的一切令人震撼。

我們為你們每一位與我們的教師和助教兄弟姐妹們並肩作戰而感到無比自豪。你們走訪學校,加入充滿紫色力量的糾察隊伍中,這令人振奮。我們的力量清晰可見,而且還在不斷壯大。

工會成員、家長和學生都積極參與。成千上萬的人聚集在市政中心廣場。

UESF和教師們今晚將進行談判,我們期待著好消息。

UESF(旧金山联合教师工会)和学区今晚将进行谈判,我们希望能够听到好消息。在我们获得更多信息之前,您可以采取以下措施继续支持罢工:

•请到您附近的学校或罢工破坏者中心参加纠察活动。

•明天有降雨的可能性,主要集中在下午。

•工會大廳提供雨披、T卹、標語牌和零食,有需要的朋友可以來領取。請於早上7:00開始前來(地址:羅德島街350號)。我們將提供咖啡和甜甜圈。

•明天中午来多洛雷斯公园参加大型集会吧。

區裡一片混亂,他們終於明白了我們一直以來都知道的道理:沒有我們,他們寸步難行。

再撐一天,我們就能更強大一天。

請明天加入我們的糾察隊!現在還不晚。

The community energy at schools today has been electric!

We’re all gathering at Civic Center Plaza at 1pm to make sure the whole city sees that it’s time for the District to come to the table with acceptable proposals for our teachers. This strike can end today if the District wants it to.
