Honoring a Legend
Elijah Cummings will be remembered for his unique passion and dedication in which he served. He will be remembered for the compassion he had for the people he represented. He will be admired for being that "Voice". That voice who spoke for the voiceless. A man who never sat still when chaos, confusion and injustice was bringing harm to our country. To say he was a fighter is an understatement.
On behalf of the Association of Supervisory and Administrative School Personnel, we SALUTE and THANK YOU for your unwavering service and your commitment to our country. May you rest in peace.

The Honorable Elijah E. Cummings once said, "When we're dancing with the angels, the question will be asked, in 2019, what did we do to make sure we kept our democracy intact? Did we stand on the sidelines and say nothing? |

Rebuild America's Schools Act Introduced in the House
|
The Rebuild America’s Schools Act in the U.S. House of Representatives would authorize $100 billion in grants and bonds to construct, modernize, repair, renovate or retrofit public school facilities. Introduced at the end of January by new House Education & Labor Committee Chair Bobby Scott (D-Va.), the bill is a clear indication the new Congress is dedicated to putting public schools first.
“Chair Scott’s bill represents not only a much-needed boost to America’s public schools, but an investment in their future health and in the futures of public school students and educators,” said AFSA President Ernest Logan. As principals, assistant principals and school leaders in charge of many of the public school buildings that need an overhaul, AFSA members should follow this legislation and contact their member of Congress to voice support for the legislation. - Source: AFSA via ActionNetwork & NEA |

Paid sick leave becomes law in MD
The legislation allows workers at companies with 15 workers or more to earn up to five days a year of paid sick leave, which they could also use for such matters as going to court to obtain a protective order against domestic violence or dealing with the aftermath of sexual assault. A worker will be able to earn an hour of sick leave for every 30 hours they work. It will benefit about 700,000 Maryland workers. Read the Washington Post report here
