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.”
Hmmm… Is the implication most callers to 911 are nuts? Sounds like implicit racism. Shitavious won’t eat his paintchips?
Correct me if I’m wrong, but…
Is’n the tax surcharge on our phone bills for 911 supposed to be used to help fund 911…?
JBP wants a 988 fund, then create one, & take the heat for creating yet another tax on us overburdened taxpayers…
