If you Thought that the LA Teacher’s Union Demands (to go back to work) Was an Outlier…

Brittany Infographic Teacher Union Cycle

Once again, it’s a union showing that they are all about the Union – not about the kids. It’s about Societal Change, and teaching “Social Justice” not academics. It is not about educating your kids.

NC Teachers’ Union Demands Universal Health Care, Welfare for Illegal Immigrants to Reopen Schools

A North Carolina teachers’ union is calling for the implementation of universal health care and welfare benefits for illegal immigrants in order to reopen schools in the fall.

Just days after the Durham Association of Educators (DAE) issued a statement railing against the school district’s reopening plan, Durham Public Schools voted unanimously to hold all classes virtually for at least the first nine weeks of the school year. Included in the DAE statement was a call to adopt a variety of far-left policy goals before holding in-person classes, including Medicare for All and “direct income support regardless of immigration status.”

What do those two social changes have to do with being in the classroom? Nothing. Teachers unions are just two things:

  • Propagandists for the Democrat Socialists in your kid’s classroom
  • Tax money launderers to the Democrat Party

“There are concrete policies that have permitted other countries to flatten the curve and return to public life: moratoriums on rent and mortgage, universal health care, direct income support regardless of immigration status,” the statement reads. “We must fight together, collectively, for changes that will permit our communities to thrive during this pandemic and beyond.”

The union’s statement also calls for a full shutdown of the state, saying “until that is done, remote learning should remain the default.”

Yeah, who elected them, right? I like this bit where they all but call Parents derelicts in their duty to protect the schools’ children:

..all children are suffering without school—some without enough food to eat, others without sufficiently supportive adult and peer relationships, many without internet access, and others with too much mindless screen time.”

They just can’t stop reinforcing the stereotype they are building in the eyes of Parents and taxpayers – a “collective” notion of who has the responsibility of kids (e.g., everyone’s else EXCEPT Parents). And they wonder why Parents are increasingly saying “not on my watch!”. And the idea of just giving vouchers to Parents is also increasingly getting play in the public mind.

WHO DO THESE PEOPLE THINK THEY ARE????
