I would love to see this happen...

If we want to save American education, we must vigorously enforce Communications Workers of America v. Beck. The NEA must be rendered politically impotent and the Federal Department of Education defunded.

June 2000 - NEA's Political Activities Detailed *** The National Education Association documents reviewed by The Associated Press provide a rare window into the internal workings of one of the most powerful unions in the country. The union said Thursday it believes it complied with the law.

The documents state that the union since 1994 has budgeted or spent money from its general account -- funded by about $200 million a year in teachers' dues -- on activities ranging from recruiting teacher-friendly candidates to helping state affiliates raise political action committee funds.

A July 1999 strategic plan states the union budgeted $4.9 million for the 2000 election for such things as ''organizational partnerships with political parties, campaign committees and political organizations. ***

June 2000 - TEACHERS BACK DNC WITH MONEY, MUSCLE ***In Iowa, New Hampshire, and other key primary states, teachers knocked on doors, staffed telephone banks, and helped get out the vote for Gore. In New York, members of the United Federation of Teachers helped distribute more than one million fliers for Gore in one day. In Massachusetts, the Massachusetts Teachers Association contacted each of its 90,000 members three times by phone and by mail, urging them to vote for Gore over Bradley………….

The teachers and their unions have long been a force in American politics. From 1991 to 1999, for example, contributions to the Democratic Party from the NEA, AFT, and the Service Employees International Union, which includes some education workers, totaled $6.7 million, making teachers by far the party's biggest donor bloc, according to the nonpartisan Center for Public Integrity. ***

...Furthermore, the NEA's tax returns related to its general fund do not report the money used for political purposes...

Nah. Teacher unions and other shadow tax-exempt political organizations like the NAACP aren't evil - big corporations are. /sarcasm

Republican Reps. Charlie Norwood of Georgia and John Culberson of Texas

What no Dingle? How can Norwood operate without his Dingle??? Look for Al Gore to bring this up!

Sorry but Charles Roselli is going to turn his blind eye to this. He only goes after Conservative groups, not Liberal groups.

THANK YOU!

It's a shame that you have to do the work that our elected officials are suppose to do. What a bunch of cowards, liars and crooks. We are suppose to believe they will clean up Wall Street? ROFLOL!

[Teacher317]

YAY!!! It's about time!

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

Now we are talking! Next - investigate the NAACP. Brit Hume even mentioned their tax exempt status....with Fred Barnes saying there was an entity within the NAACP that does all the politicking. .....for the Rats of course....so they can do this without IRS problems. BUT LET'S GET THE IRS IN THERE TO FIND OUT!

[concerned about politics]

It's easier for the IRS to destroy the little guys. When it comes to the big guys, it's too much work.
I think before the IRS has a right to get the little guy, I think they should clean their own house first. It's hypocritical of them not to. This is a republic, not a dictatorship where the tax payers are usefull little slaves and the elite groups have special treatment.

[F16Fighter]

Not ONLY should the NEA be investigated by the IRS, but by the FBI for the charge of treason against the people of United States of America...

The case is overwhelming.

[EternalHope]

Don't forget, the NEA just lost a major case in Washington State in which they were fined $800,000 for misusing dues for political purposes. This would seem ample justification for an IRS audit.

[Don Myers]

If only they would, and disband and jail that socialist bunch of traitors.

[LurkedLongEnough]

Let's not stop with investigating how they use their money; let's also take a look at how they use their time in the name of "education".

I posted this at our school district forum for parents and educators, and no one has responsed. Silence is certainly golden!
