Description | Arizona teachers voted for a statewide walkout next week, escalating their push for higher pay and increased school funding.
The Arizona Education Association announced Thursday night that its members voted to strike. Of the more than 57,000 votes tallied, 78% of school employees in the state were in favor of a walkout, association president Joe Thomas said.
