UFEA cares — about public education, our students, and our schools.

Your vote matters and together we can make a difference! Voting for public education means voting for issues that matter to our students, public schools and union — and for candidates who will support our students, our public schools and our union.

The includes voting Yes for Schools on the McLean County Schools Sales Tax referendum question, and for the three candidates running for Unit 5 school board.
