  • Mulgrew’s slate, called Unity caucus, has not lost an election since UFT’s inception in the 1960s and has produced prominent national labor leaders like Randi Weingarten.
  • Mulgrew, who has been UFT president since 2009 and has now won five consecutive elections, said, “I am honored that — after a couple of very difficult years for the schools and for our members — I have been re-elected.
