ADVOCACY

It’s more important than ever that KEA members contact legislators to voice their opinions on pending legislation.  Use this legislative contact link to easily identify your state legislators and send an email.

Prefer to call and leave a message?  You can always do that on the legislative message line at 1-800-372-7181.

Don’t be silent when it matters most; let your elected officials know what you think!

Please contact your Legislator today and demand that educators receive a meaningful state mandated pay raise in this budget!

While our neighboring states like Tennessee, Ohio, and Indiana are making significant investments in their educators, including one proposal to raise salaries to a starting minimum of $50,000, the Kentucky General Assembly continues to ignore educator salaries, allowing Kentucky to slip to 44th in the nation for starting teacher salaries and 48th for school support staff. 

Tell your State Legislator that Kentucky can and must do better for our kids, our educators, and our communities by investing in the future with significant mandated raises for our educators. Tell your story! Let your voice be heard!
