CTU needs to designated a progressive political action group. Then form a new teacher union that is about education, not power, money and indoctrination.
A teachers union should advocate for its members. That includes pay, benefits and work place conditions. There is no “labeling” them a “political action group”. You and other non-members don’t get to decide what is their priority. Focus your efforts on CPS and not CTU. CTU will keep following the Illinois Constitution and utilize collective bargaining the way the people of Illinois want.
