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.
This is horrible. To an outsider looking in, this is forcing professors to commit to left-wing Democrat ideology. Just like the communists in Russia and today in China required all university employees to commit in writing to the ideology of the communist party. One would think that professors would be abhorred by this requirement – but they are not, because they support this. This is what they want. They are no different than the communist party.
