Unions’ Focus on Woke Over Work Rankles Rank and File
Los Angeles school teacher Glenn Laird has been a union stalwart for almost four decades. He served as a co-chair of his school’s delegation to United Teachers Los Angeles and proudly wore union purple on the picket line.
But Laird is now suing to leave UTLA and demanding a refund of the dues the union has collected since his resignation request. His turning point came in July 2020 when the union, the second largest teachers union in the country, joined liberal activists to demand that Los Angeles defund the police in response to Black Lives Matter demonstrations.

JTA Public school unions in the US are increasingly becoming a hotbed of Israel discourse, with the largest teachers’ union becoming the latest organized body to deliberate measures that censure Israel and support the Palestinian cause.
At the National Education Association’s annual meeting held earlier this month (with US President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden, a longtime educator, in attendance), members planned to debate two items on Israel and the Palestinians among the more than 60 items on its virtual agenda. Both sought to make the union publicize some measure of support for the Palestinians and oppose the actions of the Israeli government in the wake of May’s outbreak of violence in Israel and Gaza.

LOS ANGELES, CA Golden State health officials announced Monday that K-12 students who refuse to wear a mask indoors this fall will be banned from campus, but quickly backpedaled, leaving enforcement methods up to individual school districts instead.
The initial guidance from the California Department of Public Health said that schools will be required to exclude students from campus if they are not exempt from wearing a face covering under CDPH guidelines.
