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.”

Also, this seems discriminatory. Why do low income people get low cost medicine, but people with seemingly middle class incomes have to pay full price?
It’s part of the ‘shared sacrifice’ the Dems have signed us up for.
We’re sacrificing for:
VOTE THE BUMS OUT.
You can’t vote the deep state, permanent state or whatever you want to call it out. The unelected bureaucrats rule by unconstitutional regulation propped up by all three branches of government via bribes, extortion, force, racketeering, and election fraud.
Average out of pocket of $177 per year does not seem too high. That’s $14.75 per month. Less than the cost of 2 tanks of gas in a year.
