Help us get out the vote for the Nov. 4 election
The UFT Delegate Assembly voted in July to endorse Zohran Mamdani for New York City mayor. Mamdani, in turn, promised to work with the union to fully fund public schools, pass the "RESPECT check" for paraprofessionals, lobby Albany to fix Tier 6 of the pension system and more.
See these upcoming dates to help get out the vote for Mamdani and our union's other endorsed candidates in the general election in November:
