The AFT remembers pioneering Texas leader Linda Bridges
“Linda woke up every morning with the goal of trying to help kids succeed and trying to give educators a voice—a crucial element in helping all kids succeed. There was never a mountain too high, an obstacle too great or an opponent too fierce to derail her from that goal. We will so miss her, but I know we will all try to emulate her kind spirit, strong leadership and tireless advocacy for students, parents and communities.”
–AFT President Randi Weingarten.
