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.”
Who are the 28% that think he is doing a good job? And why are they running loose on our streets?
As if Brandon’s boss Toni Preckwinkle cares what his approval rating is. Hahaha!
Wait ’til Chicagoans get to meet their new mayor, is approval rating may not make the teens…
Isn’t that the same approval rating as Kamala? Hmmmm.
I bet his approval rating is 80% with the folks that actually bothered to vote
Bingo!!!
Surprised by the 28% favorable opinion. Must be compilation of BJ administration appointees and their minions, CTU administrators and woke teachers, marxist college students, and those folks who profit from the ongoing disarray.
Shows they are not the majority. They are only magnified by the corrupt left wing press, which a lot of stupid people believe. If Chicagoans actually bothered to vote in the last mayoral elections, perhaps the outcome would have been different. An interesting thought, what would Vallas do in this current mess!
