The PSEA PACE for Education has also endorsed Fitzpatrick.
“Thank you to PSEA for your support. It’s critical we take care of those who dedicate their lives to shaping and molding students in our public school system. Education is a right, not a privilege, and in Congress I promise to be an advocate for our children, fighting for access, resources and funding,” Fitzpatrick said.
PSEA’s members are teachers, school nurses, bus drivers, cafeteria workers and school psychologists who work in public education.
“On behalf of our 180,000 PSEA members and the over 1.5 million school children served by our membership, we are pleased to recommend you due to your exemplary voting record and the commitment you have shown to our public schools and educators,” PSEA president Richard W. Askey and PSEA PACE chairman Joe Scheuermann told Fitzpatrick.
