The National Education Association (NEA), the nation's largest professional employee organization, is committed to advancing the cause of public education. NEA's 3 million members work at every level of education—from pre-school to university graduate programs. NEA has affiliate organizations in every state and in more than 14,000 communities across the United States.

The NEA is not a government agency, it is a union.

I am at a loss to determine how one gets rid of a union. That has to come from the grass roots.

If they could never get rid of the Teamsters after all these decades, the NEA would be just as difficult.

It has to come from the members..

or suggesting an alternative

I've been wondering for the last couple of weeeks ....

I have a deed to my property with our names on it as owners ...

Whose name is on the deed to the property and/or school building ?

Does the physical plant actually belong to anyone and if so .... who ?

I used to be a union carpenter and .... we were locked out of a job once back in the 70's

We never went back and completed the work .... it eventually WAS done (a mall store) ... but we didn't do it

food for thought

The NEA is not for the students, it is for the teacher’s wages and benefits. Gov’t employees were not always allowed to unionize and it really is not a good idea. I worked for a PEU for years and they are the taxpayer’s worst enemy.
