I called this out when they went on strike in 2021. The teachers where demanding 1 time funds be used for salaries. One time funds should never be used to fund pay increases.
Absolutely. The teachers and their trusted union leaders knew exactly what was coming financially. Why have most of the districts done the same? Why don’t they negotiate during the summer? Oh nevermind 😬😬🤭🤭
It is illegal for public employees in Washington to strike. The union should have been decertified.
The only thing unions are good for are jacking up the price of goods and services. They should be broken up and band. They are not needed today. They are a democrat money laundering scam.
