Have you seen the overwhelming response to defend Tony Thurmond and disavow these false attack ads?

  • The ACLU put out a statement rejecting mailers that are purposefully designed to look like they endorse Tony’s opponent.
  • Bruce Harter, who was Superintendent during Tony’s term on the West Contra Costa Unified School Board, wrote a letter (attached) setting the record straight on the results Tony brought to West Contra Costa Unified School District (WCCUSD) – increased graduation rates, renovated facilities, and more.
  • Mayor London Breed with Assemblymembers Phil Ting and David Chiu came together with parents and students from WCCUSD in a press conference last week to disavow the attacks.
  • Finally, Senator Kamala Harris is standing up for Tony in a new TV ad released this week.

Member Benefits: Disability Insurance 

Our endorsed disability and life insurer, The Standard, reports that the average disability for educators lasts 111 days, but many educators are not eligible for state disability insurance nor have sufficient sick leave to cover this period. Need disability insurance?  Check out CTA’s excellent voluntary program.

If you have another disability program (not endorsed by CTA), consider talking to The Standard about their special port-over opportunity during the months of October and November.

New Benefits Exclusively for CTA Members

CTA is always looking for ways to enhance their member benefits. CTA understands the emotional and financial burden members may experience due to outstanding student loans or being out of work on a disability claim due to a Cancer diagnosis. That’s why CTA created and is providing the Student Loan Benefit and Cancer Benefit for CTA members. These benefits will be available at no additional cost to Members enrolled in the CTA-endorsed Voluntary Disability Insurance plans from Standard Insurance Company (The Standard). MORE
