Helping Educators Regain Control  Let's Turn Big Labor ED into a Blurry Memory

CEAFU.org programs shifted public discourse from supporting the 60's Big Labor Education Model to a growing acknowledgement that the primary impediments to education reform are Union Official's with Monopoly Bargaining a.k.a. so-called "Collective Bargaining " powers.

AFSCME case that essential gave all public school teachers the Right To Work, that is the choice not to have to pay union fees and dues as a condition of employment.

reason: Teachers Union Closes L.A. Schools Yet Again

The West Coast L.A. School Gangs UTLA and SEIU continue to rival the Midwest Chicago School Gangs CTU and SEIU for undermining students, education, and classroom normalcy. It should be normal to classroom teachers in classrooms for students.

The Janus case was named after plaintiff Mark Janus who was represented by National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation staff attorney William Messenger. Messenger's oral arguments were made before the High Court in February 2018. Read More
