The National Education Association passed a resolution during their annual Representative Assembly in Chicago that would allocate thousands of dollars to conduct opposition research on 25 organizations that are supposedly attacking gender identity and sexual orientation freedoms in public schools.
"NEA shall compile research to create fact sheets about the largest 25 organizations that are actively working to diminish a students' right to honesty in education, freedom of sexual and gender identify, and teacher autonomy," the resolution said. NEA's resolutions are called new business items (NBI) and represent the teachers' union's opinions and beliefs. They also open the door to funding.
The cost for compiling the list and for the research would amount to $140,625, NBI 15 said. The research will include probing into groups' funding sources, the leaders of the organizations, "connections to known entities that are seeking to dismantle public education, organization headquarters and chapter locations."
Nicole Neily of Parents Defending Education told Fox News Digital that she was very concerned about the resolution. "It’s not surprising that the unions would compile an ‘enemies list,'" she said.
"[The NEA's] policies are deeply unpopular with average American families - and, I suspect, with many of their rank-and-file membership - which means that they must enforce their ideology through bullying and intimidation. We will not be bullied, we will not be cowed, and we will not be silenced - we will continue to advocate for our children, because the past two years have made it abundantly clear that children’s welfare is the unions’ absolute last priority."
"They're not just trying to change culture, they're trying to change what it means to be human," a retired union member, Jeralee Smith, told Fox News Digital. "They have no ability to tolerate somebody who doesn't agree with them."

Oh my, being more like Nixon than Nixon himself was, eh?
Good news, less money for DNC hacks.
Cheaper and more efficient for a list of who’s not our enemy list when it comes to teachers unions.
Public Unions need to be outlawed.
Teachers don’t have to belong to the union. I wonder how many truly agree with this agenda.
make it a felony for any public employee or teachers union member to send their offspring to anyplace but the local public school where they live, and this crap will end overnight.
All teachers need to view this speech by the president of the NEA at this years NEA Conference. All parents need to watch and listen to her. Especially starting at 16.00 minute. I find this disgusting.

The most vile group in the US.
Overwhelming majority it seems.
After watching that part of the speech beginning at 16:00, my characterization of her as “ranting” was completely appropriate. Though she had many in the audience standing up and cheering, there were quite a few that sat quietly.
No Big Deal!
Our communist masters know that the Aamerican sheeple will just continue to roll over and spread their collective cheeks...
Bow down!... Obey!... Snitch!...
Yes that was JFK’s deal for them to swing to the democrat party and it came at a hell of a cost.
Ditto what you said.
Yes she was ranting and ranting some scary stuff dealing with promoting LGBUTQUEERS grooming people’s children at an early age and vote for and fight for democrats.
“a students’ right to honesty in education, freedom of sexual and gender identify, and teacher autonomy,”
So that’s what they call sexual grooming by pedophiles.
10. The most vile group in Amerca, AND THEY’VE GOT YOUR KID! So what are you going to do about it, and The marxist run AFT and it’s longtime leader Randi Weingarten?
I think FOX finally has earned the gold star for the worst and most annoying web pages.
I refuse to go to one more FOX web site.
