CHICAGO TEACHERS UNION PRESIDENT OWES CITY $5,579 FOR UTILITIES
Illinois Policy ^ | 7 Dec 2023 | Mailee Smith

Posted on 12/12/2023 8:34:53 AM PST by DUMBGRUNT

Chicago Teachers Union President Stacy Davis Gates has let $5,579 in Chicago water, sewer and trash bills pile up. She makes over $289,000 and demands the “wealthy” pay a greater share. So why doesn’t she pay her fair share to a city in financial turmoil?

Davis Gates’ tenure as CTU president has been filled with controversy, from taking a homestead exemption on an Indiana home she doesn’t live in to killing school choice for low-income kids while putting her own son in private school. CTU has also come under fire from its own members for potentially misappropriating members’ dues for politics.

Look for the union label when you are buying that coat, dress or blouse.

Remember somewhere our union's sewing, our wages going to feed the kids, and run the house.

"Hi, comrades"

The choice of greeting is telling.

If you managed to hold down your breakfast after the impoverished union leader story...

... better than ipecac and no prescription is needed!

Best to have a WASTE container lined with a plastic bag or two on hand.

That is HILARIOUS! The poor, unfortunate victim of Bidenomics! Indeed. "The Rich must pay their FAIR SHARE!!"

Here's the tiny text in the GoFundMe made easier to read (all the misspellings in the original)...

Hi comrades, my nama is Jackson. As working class Chicagoans, we all know how difficult it is kesp up with our bills. Now imagine... you are the President of Chicago Teachers Union and your income is nearly S3OOK per year which is only 852% more than the avurage Chicagoan's income. I'm sure you can understand how this person could fall behind on their bills. That is the plight of my good triend Stacy Devis Gates. She hasn't been able to pay her weter bill for three years. I encourage everyone to donate to Stacy's water bill GoFundMe so she can get back to managing Chicago Teacher's Union's $36,000,000 budget. Also, she wanted me to let all CTU members know that their money is safe in her hands and the audit of CTU's books that is four years overdue will be released by the year 2050 at the very latest.

Thank you, Comrade Jackson.

This woman heads up the teachers union in a school system with a $9.4 BILLION budget!

I love the capital "O" letters in the "3OO" rather than zeroes.

CTU? Isn’t that Counter Terrorism Unit? Is Jack Bauer involved? He’ll solve the case in 24 hours.

—” Counter Terrorism Unit?”

Chicago taxpayers believe it is terrorism as they get pounded.

See the link in #4 $500.00 bogus parking tickets that double if not paid, all to support the costly union labor and a few other expenses.

I do not know about prices in Chicago and how huge mansion she has, but I think, it must take at least 2 years to accumulate so much debt on utilities!
Why they do not pull the plug on her?
