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.

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.”
It’s not just Lori putting the wrong foot forward. She usually does by sticking her shoe in her mouth. If you don’t comply you’re obviously a racist. Lori is normally subtle. But, sometimes she goes over the top! She’s always inches away from labeling someone a honky.
I respect the FOP president more than Lightfoot.
Yes, but the holocaust comparison is stupid. He’d be better of talking about government enforced sterilization, or the forced anthrax vax, or even the failed polio vax that have people terrible cases of polio. There’s very little in the world that can be compared to the holocaust.
