Political Activism Takes Center Stage With The NEA

Too bad teaching doesn't take center stage...

It is time that the GOP drop the kid gloves and get down and dirty with some organized labor like the NEA. I think that the NEA could be made an object lesson for the rest of organized labor. The NEA and its state associations have been caught in so many campaign finance violations, that maybe the IRS should be asked to investigate and pull their tax exempt status.

I also think that some states should change the ability to require union memmbership by the state NEA local chapters. Some states have already done this and I have seen reports of where the NEA state organiztion doesn't allow members to "opt out"

If the NEA wants to be an offical organ of the Democratic Party, then it is time that they feel what it is like when the Dem's don't control any part of the federal government.
