DeSantis Proposes Legislation To Limit Teachers Unions
« on: January 24, 2023, 04:05:10 pm »


Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis announced Monday new legislation to regulate teachers unions by prohibiting them from collecting dues directly from educator paychecks, according to a press release.

DeSantis unveiled the “Teacher’s Bill of Rights” which would prevent teachers union officials from earning more than the highest paid educator that is represented by the union and would prohibit the union from distributing materials in schools. The legislation would also put limits on the collective bargaining process, prohibiting school board members from accessing excessive funds created for negotiations.

“We want more transparency into how school unions operate, and we are going to fight against school union haggling that holds teachers and their salary increases hostage,” DeSantis said at a press conference. “Partisan groups should not be given special privileges.”

There should be no such thing as a public sector union period!
