Largest US teachers union cuts ties with Anti-Defamation League over Israel support: ‘Profoundly disturbing’
New York Post ^ | July 8, 2025 | Ronny Reyes and Carl Campanile

The largest teachers union in America has voted to cut all ties with the Anti-Defamation League — which called the move “profoundly disturbing” as antisemitic attacks in the US are at a record high. The National Education Association, which is also the US’s largest union with more than 3 million members, approved a proposal Sunday to drop the ADL as an education partner, accusing the New York-based Jewish civil rights group of using the term antisemitism to punish any and all criticisms of Israel.

“Allowing the ADL to determine what constitutes antisemitism would be like allowing the fossil-fuel industry to determine what constitutes climate change,” NEA delegate Stephen Siegel claimed at the group’s meeting over the weekend, according to the Mondoweiss outlet. Siegel is a special-education teacher at Oregon’s Reynolds School District, where he’s advocated for racial equity in education and pushed motions in the NEA to provide resources for schools and teachers who are targeted by “anti-CRT” groups, his Oregon EA bio states.

But Liora Rez, the founder of StopAntisemitism, said, “The most radical fringe has taken over the NEA and they actively promote bigotry against Jews and lies about the Jewish state. “Rather than trying to educate our children, they want to indoctrinate them to hate each other.”

The NEA is a hollowed-out sheol of what it used to be.

The ADL is the hollowed-out shell, given their reaction to Elon Musk throwing a hitlergrusse.

ADL has become just another Dem Party front group under Obama stooge Jonathan Greenblatt. The woke NEA now opposing Leftist fellow travelers is Jew-hate, not policy. Karma, baby!

There should be no ‘teachers union’.

Collective (socialistic) labor bargaining always results in an overall lowering of quality because by definition it defends the ‘rights’ of the most inept members of the group. For some less important profession, it may work sorta, but children are the hope of the future, far too important to leave in the hands of a bunch of wage hustlers.

A pox on both their houses. Each Democrat-allied group should disappear.

Same as it ever was.

Change is coming soon, but only after the Lord returns to take his own with him to Heaven and all hell breaks out on earth. THAT will finally convince the Jews to turn away from making friends with their enemies and turn to the Lord (Revelation Chap. 7).

"Soon, but not yet..."

Here in the AZ Senate we had a bill to stop antisemitism in schools. It’s a slippery slope as who defines it. To me it’s like porn.. I can’t describe it but I know it when I see it. And I’ve been seeing a lot lately. That bill passed but the Governor vetoed it. There was another bill about the encampments on college campuses that were popping up last year. It passed. The Governor signed it. It was not my bill but I ran it through the Senate.

As long as schools are ‘free’, what could be so bad about them?
