Youngstown School Administrator Aaron Bouie has been engaging in unfair and reckless practices through the course of this strike. It has been alleged that on day one he struck a worker with his car and left him lying on the sidewalk, waiting for paramedics and since then he has been harassing and attempting to strong arm union members and community members supporting their teachers.

We will not stand for this. We want We want Bouie not only fired, but we want him charged as well. We believe that you should not be allowed to assault someone with a vehicle just because you're a city administrator.

Please take a moment to sign our petition and share this to get the word out!
