Scenarios about 'American Federation of Teachers'

The American Federation of Teachers (AFT) is a labor union founded in 1916 representing educators, healthcare professionals, and public employees across the United States. As one of the largest educational unions, it has significantly influenced American educational policy, working conditions for teachers, and academic standards throughout the 20th and 21st centuries.
