Chicago Teachers Union contract demands are totally divorced from reality – Wirepoints

Details emerging about Chicago Teachers Union’s upcoming contract show just how divorced its demands, both extreme and expensive, are from the reality at Chicago schools. It’s not just about massive salary increases, but also about money for migrant students, climate initiatives, abortions and gender-affirming care. About blocking parental notification. Count on CTU’s demands to veer further from reality until the public finally says no.
Weekly crime statistics from the Chicago Police Department: Report through 5/4/2024.
Gov. JB Pritzker calls it “ethics” reform.
It’s rare to see city leaders in Chicago take an open, unabashed stance on the collapse of literacy. To complain is deemed as too political, too racist or too anti-public schools. So it’s refreshing to see Willie Wilson, a successful businessman and leader of the black community, call for a literacy initiative “with the goal of getting 100% of Black students reading at grade level.”
A room full of thieves, criminals, grifters and terrorists. Not a single teacher there. I can not imagine how horrifically disgusting that room must have smelled. Look into nearly any Illinois crime and you can find a CTU member near the core.
This delegate is so far gone that not only are they accepting Hamas numbers, but exact numbers. Not 3,600, not 3,650…3,648.
Great reporting on whats discussed in a CTU House Of Delegates meeting. The laundry list of CTU subjects covered includes every pseudo-socialist lib topics from killing Invest In Kids to teaching indigenous peoples history in place of Skyline and every $collective bargaining$ victory on the taxpayers dime…..and of course ZERO time devoted to abysmal reading & math scores. What else would one expect from are $equity hustle pseudo-socialist$ CTU heroes?
Second City Teacher/Vail inadvertently always does a great job giving incite into the self-serve world of $CTU$ on the taxpayers dime.
