Chancellor Aviles-Ramos said the DOE's communications, intergovernmental affairs, policy and advocacy teams will report directly to her. “It’s the propaganda office,” quipped David Bloomfield, a Brooklyn College and CUNY grad center education professor.
New: After 4 months on the job, NYC schools Chancellor Melissa Aviles-Ramos has promoted 14 educrats to top positions in the city DOE administration. Some lofty titles seem "duplicative" and "a way of inflating salaries,” says @BloomfieldDavid w/@deirdre_bardolf…

“@LVladeck’s call to support @FlorenceProject is consistent with @NYCSchools policies to uphold immigrant student rights, and to hold immigration authorities to their legal obligations.” @BloomfieldDavid @BklynCollege411 @GC_CUNY By @SusanBEdelman @nypost nypost.com/2025/01/04/us-…
“Direct [US] ed funding could be cut. But if transportation is cut, or other areas of massive federal aid, the [state] budget may have to adjust away from ed to fill other gaps.” @BloomfieldDavid @BklynCollege411 @GC_CUNY By @julianshenberro @ChalkbeatNY chalkbeat.org/newyork/2025/0…

“We're worried about chronic absenteeism already. If people feel they have to go underground to avoid deportation or other harassment by the federal government, that would be a big deal too.” @BloomfieldDavid @BklynCollege411 @GC_CUNY By @Jill_Jorgensen ny1.com/nyc/all-boroug…
From Mayor of London. @NYCMayor, where’s your statement or are you just looking for your pardon?
London mayor @SadiqKhan has issued a statement on the US election: “I know that many Londoners will be anxious about the outcome of the US Presidential election. Many will be fearful about what it will mean for democracy and for women’s rights, or how the result impacts the…
Autoritaaristen voimien vahvistuessa on tärkeää yhdistää liikkeitä, jotka työskentelevät ihmisoikeuksien, demokratian, kunnianhimoisen ilmasto- ja ympäristöpolitiikan sekä tasa-arvon puolesta. Me jatkamme työtämme – lopulta pimeyden jälkeen tulee aina valo. 9/9
