Illinois Federation of Teachers spends little on representing teachers, members flee – Illinois Policy

IFT spent a total of $49,719,191 in 2022, according to the document the union filed with the U.S. Department of Labor.  Yet just $12,972,199 was on “representational activities,” which the Department explains are activities “associated with preparation for, and participation in, the negotiation of collective bargaining agreements and the administration and enforcement of the agreements.” The rest was spent on politics, administration and other union leadership priorities.

Teachers unions exist not to advocate for schools, students, parents or even the teachers whose dues pay for union activities. Teachers unions are a money laundry for the crooked corrupt Democrat party that uses teachers unions to pull off vote fraud schemes, and shakes down cities for cash that gets funneled to the Democrat party
