Is this the leader of the second largest teachers union in the United States waging war against American parents? Because that's exactly what it seems like.
Here's the president of the American Federation of Teachers explaining the great evil behind Florida's anti-grooming bill: it empowers parents over teachers unions.
Oh you want war?
Is that what you want?
Bring. It. On.
From Fox News:
The AFT is the nation's most prominent teachers' union and has been a consistent and vocal critic of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and of GOP school legislation, accusing the party of overstepping boundaries and placing undue restrictions on educators.
The union – one of the most powerful labor organizations in the country – has tried to walk a tightrope as school boards nationwide are seeing a surge in parental participation.
AFT has stated it supports parental involvement in education – but expressed concern about some so-called "vocal minorities" who, according to the group, wanted to marginalize kids and censor teachers.
Parents want teachers to stop talking to kids about sex.
And the teachers unions say "that's censoring teachers!"
The teachers, administrators, and union bosses on the left need to get one thing straight: they work for and serve at the pleasure of parents. If the parents tell you to stop teaching CRT or gender nonsense, you stop. That's it.
Weingarten referred to "vocal minorities" that opposed the grooming of children.
"Educators welcome parent involvement in schools because our kids do best when teachers, parents and caregivers work together," said AFT president Randi Weingarten in a statement to Fox News earlier this week. "We have a lot to do to help kids recover and thrive this year after two years of an unprecedented pandemic. So rather than help us help our kids socially, academically and emotionally, these vocal minorities want to marginalize LGBTQ kids, censor teachers and ban books."
By "vocal minorities" she means a majority of voters in Florida, including a majority of Democratic voters who support the anti-grooming bill.
These unions are out-of-touch and they are in for a big wake up call from this nation's mama bears.
If you want war, you've got it.
