L.A. Teachers’ Union Passes Resolution Calling for Arms Embargo on Israel
Breitbart ^ | 10/29/2024 | Joel B. Pollak

Posted on 10/29/2024 8:33:29 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

The United Teachers Los Angeles (UTLA), the major teachers’ union in the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD), passed a resolution last week backing an arms embargo against Israel proposed by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT).

The resolution, obtained by the Los Angeles Times, calls upon California’s Sens. Alex Padilla and Laphonza Butler, both Democrats, to back Sanders’s resolution in the Senate’s “lame duck” session after the November election.

The Times reported:

Union materials prepared for a board of directors meeting, which were obtained by The Times, state the rationale for taking such a stand: “the arms named have been used in violations of U.S. and international law, indiscriminately killing large numbers of civilians, many of them children.”

“As educators, we have watched for one year as Israel has decimated the education system for current and future Palestinians, destroying every university in Gaza and forcing children to attend school in refugee camps or not at all,” the document explaining the union’s rationale for the resolution states.Best online courses

The union did not immediately release the vote tally, but it passed easily among those members of the union’s House of Representatives who attended the virtual meeting, sources said. UTLA’s House of Representatives is its official governing body.

Either Jew haters or completely ignorant of current facts and recent history to have such beliefs.

Both make them unfit to teach children.

Anyone need any more evidence that teachers unions are graft and political entities - and have NOTHING to do with “education?”

I always wondered what teachers unions’ purpose was. I guess now I know.🤣

Proving once and for all that the teachers’ union has nothing to do with teaching. And most of today’s teachers are just political activists who are in it for themselves first and foremost.

Not my kids. Not my country. My country is called Kentucky. It’s a completely different world - in the good way.

Oh, thank God! I was worried that the L.A. Teachers’ Union would never weigh in on the issue of an arms embargo on Israel. Phew!

Why is a teacher’s union spending time expressing opinions on foreign policy issues?

I am grateful our kids got through K-12 in a public school district that pushed education. No teaching to the lowest common denominator. Heck, no teaching to the mean. They taught to near the top of the class, which caused most of the students to pick up the learning curve.
