Abortion is last straw, conservatives should quit NEA teachers union

Abortion is last straw, conservatives should quit NEA teachers union:

Image result for wikicommons Images ClassroomUntil recently, the NEA forced teachers to pay agency fees, whether they joined the union or not. The Supreme Court put a stop to that practice with itsJanus v. AFSCME decision. Since then, the NEA has lost 17,000 members and 87,000 non-member agency fee payers. That mass exodus could explain their decision to open membership to non-teachers for the purpose of funding their political action committee.
And if the unions’ adoption of radical left-leaning resolutions were not enough, delegates defeated a resolution to “make student learning the priority of the Association.” With that vote, the mask fell. Left-wing activism rather than student learning is now clearly the union’s top priority.
