My school district is cutting teacher pay by 20% for no reason.

Our district is going to a new pay schedule. Unfortunately there is an extra month after this one ends and the new one begins. Their solution? Take 20% out of our paychecks until then to cover the extra month. Every time I asked any higher ups about it they all told me “it's the same amount of pay I the end” even though it's stretched over an extra month. I'll be devastated losing 20% without a months notice, I barely make a living wage as it is. This is what we get for working through the pandemic to take care of everyone's children so the whole country can work on our backs. Not hazard pay. A 20% pay cut. We constantly think they can't lower the bar any more but here we are.
