Republican lawmakers are taking bold action against the National Education Association, the country’s biggest teachers union. They say the NEA has lost its way. Instead of helping teachers and students, the NEA pushes a radical political agenda. This is wrong and must stop.
Congressman Mark Harris and Senator Marsha Blackburn are leading the charge. They introduced a bill to strip the NEA of its federal charter. The NEA got this special status from Congress way back in 1906. But now the union uses it to promote divisive ideas instead of education.
The NEA calls President Trump a fascist. They push confusing gender theories on kids. They ignore the growing problem of antisemitism in schools. These actions show the union cares more about politics than teaching our children. Hardworking teachers deserve better.
This isn’t the first time Republicans tried to fix this problem. Senator Blackburn pushed a similar bill before. But the liberal establishment blocked it each time. Now with strong conservative leadership, we have another chance to put students first.
Erika Donalds, a champion for real education reform, backs this important move. She knows firsthand how unions like the NEA fail our kids. As a leader in the charter school movement, she fights for schools that actually teach children.
The NEA has over 3 million members. They collect huge dues from teachers. Instead of using that money for classrooms, they fund radical politics. This bill would cut their special taxpayer perks. It’s time they answer to parents, not liberal billionaires.
Our children need reading, writing, and math—not activism. The NEA’s focus on race and gender ideology hurts students. Parents see this and are fed up. They want schools to educate, not indoctrinate.
Congress must pass this bill quickly. It sends a clear message: education matters more than politics. By revoking the NEA’s charter, we put students back at the center of learning. Let’s give America’s children the future they deserve.
