*MEDIA ADVISORY*
TODAY, May 5th at 3:00 PM ET: DNC Hosts Press Call With American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten and Representative Mark Pocan To Discuss The Disastrous GOP Education Agenda during Teacher Appreciation Week

Today, American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten and Representative Mark Pocan will host a press call to discuss the disastrous GOP education agenda during Teacher Appreciation Week.

It's clear that the Republican presidential nominee, Donald Trump, stands against expanding educational opportunities for all. From the fraudulent Trump University to calling for the end of the Department of Education and Common Core, education is threatened by Trump. But Donald Trump is not alone, as his disastrous agenda on education is a reflection of failed GOP policies.

Now more than ever, Democrats are the party that supports teachers and the future of education. Today, American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten and Representative Mark Pocan will discuss what is at stake for our country's education system looking towards the general election.

WHO:
American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten
Representative Mark Pocan

WHAT: Press Call

WHEN: TODAY, May 5th at 3:00 PM ET
