This interactive map allows a user to click on an individual state to view how that state handles teacher layoffs, and also empowers them to take a stand to fight for teachers' rights by giving links to email governors and legislators, encouraging them to put an end to LIFO.
To make some sense of the color coding, states in red represent states where teachers have the greatest chance of being cut this year, and also are states that enact LIFO. States in orange are at a slightly-less high risk, and leave it up to individual districts to decide what teachers get laid off (although most are still by seniority). States in green are the lowest risk, and have performance factors included in layoff decisions.
