The Chicago Teachers Union (CTU) is negotiating a new contract with the public schools system and is understood to be calling for an extra $50 billion to pay for wage hikes as well as other demands such as fully paid abortions for its members, new migrant services and facilities and a host of LGBT-related requirements and training in schools.

To put the figure into context, the total base tax receipts for the state of Illinois last year were $50.7 billion.

Just give it to them and bankrupt the idiots who voted for this

[Sarah Barracuda]

abortions LOL no one is hitting that

[gibsonguy]

Teachers unions are among the most subversive, nation killing orgs in the country.

[rktman]

They probably will.

[Nervous Tick]

All teachers’ unions everywhere must be utterly destroyed by any necessary means. Come to think of it that applies to ALL government employment unions at every level of government. Utterly destroyed, and the political ground salted beneath them.

[PGR88]

Its just outright extortion at this point. Feed our bloated, radical, dysfunctional, corrupt political-crony bureaucracy - OR ELSE.

[JesusIsLord]

Let's see: $50B divided by $2K/immigrant ..... means that Chicago schools will need 25,000,000 illegal aliens kicking in $2K apiece to cover union demands. OTOH - any deficit can be covered by Chicago/Illinois/US taxpayers. Johnson/Pritzker/Joe love to write checks for their constituents, I'm sure.

Calling Governor Abbott >>>> let's ramp up those illegal alien flights to Chicago.

LOL!

And, yet, Illinois continues to vote Blue.

Teacher pay should be based on the quality of their teaching measured by testing their students.

That is the LAST thing they would want as their teaching has been almost a complete failure in Reading, Writing and Arithmetic. Many graduating high school seniors cannot read their diplomas. Those “graduates” are perfectly prepared for failure in life.

[Revel]

just fire them all. The kids would be better off.

[DownInFlames]

At least teach them to shoot straight.

[volare737]

Chicago public schools spend $18,000 per student. What an incredible waste of money!

[Leep]

Teach your children well....

[Leep]

Give everyone low doses of LSD...no one will learn anything but no one will care.

[DPMD]

Imagine handing over $50B to the leader of a corrupt union. Even after the usual kickbacks...

[chopperk]

95% of illegals don’t speak English and 95% of teachers don’t
speak Spanish.

[SpaceBar]

It’s like being extorted by the same pathogen that is killing you.

[2001convSVT]

Why only $50B? They should demand a full trillion dollars for all the troubles they have!

[Road Warrior ‘04]

Oh boy! And the Communists of America, disguised as the DNC, is coming to town!

[KingofZion]

Don’t forget they are also demanding a ceasefire in Gaza!
