Well if Strikes by public employees in WA is illegal, what’s gonna happen to the WEA?
And THANKS AGAIN for that photo which is now my screensaver!

School boards are packed with candidates run by the WEA. WEA pours a ton of money into supporting candidate for school boards. So when the election comes around, you got a candidate with name recognition, all bought with WEA money, and a couple of unknowns.

When the strike comes around the school board then is in the WEA’s pocket and no one ever invokes the law and fires any striking teachers.
