Chicago Teachers Go on Strike Again — and the Backlash Is Swift and Somewhat Hilarious
By Bonchie | Jan 05, 2022 2:15 PM ET

Over the Christmas break, RedState reported on an online poll sent out by the Chicago Teachers Union to its members gauging the support for a strike and a return to “remote learning.” All credit to Corey DeAngelis, who has helped lead the fight against union corruption on this front, for uncovering the poll and its results.

What it showed is that a large majority of teachers supported the move, and I speculated that a work stoppage was inevitable. Today, that became a reality as the union announced that teachers are not to show up for work, leaving hundreds of thousands of kids to suffer.

What absolute lazy bums these people are, and harmful ones at that — given the damage they are doing to children. There is no justification whatsoever for schools to close right now. Children themselves are still not strong vectors of spread and are more likely to die of drowning, a car wreck, the flu, or a head injury than COVID-19 (related: Leave the Kids Alone). Teachers themselves have not only had the opportunity to get triple-vaccinated, but they were given priority access when the vaccines first came out.

Apparently, however, the strike is illegal, because only 73% voted for it, but the rules - as far as I know - require a vote of at least 75% before a strike is legal.
