Legislative Priorities
The MTA is advocating for policies that strengthen public education, support educators and invest in our communities. Our priorities include ensuring a dignified retirement for educators and public employees, expanding access to high-quality, debt-free public higher education, improving working and learning conditions in our schools and addressing the school funding crisis so districts have the resources students need to succeed. Together, these efforts help recruit and retain a strong educator workforce while ensuring every student in Massachusetts has access to a high-quality public education.
