After next month teachers unions in Michigan are going to be a shadow of their former selves. August is opt out month and some 10,000 Michigan teachers have already quit paying dues.

CC love your post, you are wealth of information, please do tell of your source, and if it is a "public" source.

Also what is that 10,000 in terms of a percentage of the total Union Teachers in Michigan?

I get most of my info from Michigan Capitol Confidential and the Mackinac center. You'll have to dig up the stories yourself.

Here is one interesting link with a little background on the August opt out.
