While Calling For Injunction That Could Delay CPS Reopening Plan, Chicago Teachers Union Says Strike Is Not Off Table – CBS2 (Chicago)

“Right now, we’re asking for a safety plan and the public health criteria,” CTU President Jesse Sharkey said. “That’s important.” But CPS Chief Executive Officer Dr. Janice Jackson cited various studies and data showing a return to school is safe, adding that it is needed to counter “dire educational consequences” for many students.

There needs to be a solution to compulsory union membership. A lot of teachers, probably the majority, do not support the militant leaders of the ctu but are afraid to act or speak out. The union is like a gestapo policing it’s ranks and ousting anyone who dares think different. Those teachers who want to work and dont believe the union the should be a weaponized political force need protection.

Easy solution; give them the terms for their return and if they don’t comply fire them immediately. Ronald Reagan, PATCO style. He was a titan of his time who knew when to make bold moves. Not this failed leadership we see today where the inmates run the Asylum.
