New Trier High School made national headlines nine years ago as a “canary in a coal mine” for political indoctrination in public schools. The canaries lived.

Amendment 1 undermines the democratic process, insulating unions from the authority of lawmakers and voters alike. As a result, unions are insulated to changes in the political landscape, solidifying their power at the expense of legislative oversight and accountability, Voting for different representation will not help and union power will make it impossible to remove it from the state constitution.
Folks, things in this state are only going to get worse. Wirepoints warned us and did its best but not enough of you took it seriously. We the State wide tax increases have only just begun and nothing can stop it.
