NEA – the National Education Association – is the nation’s largest union. Maryland teachers are almost universally members through their local “associations” (union locals). The NEA claims to be putting our children first. Why, then, does the NEA sanction an “NEA Drag Queen Caucus”?
I try to be fair. I don’t believe in discriminating against folk because of their sexual orientation. But, a DRAG QUEEN CAUCUS? Does that have any place in our schools?
"They already have had the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, [and] Transgender Caucus and apparently felt that the drag queens needed their own caucus," explains Finn Laursen, executive director of Christian Educators Association International (CEAI).
"America, I think, needs to respond and to realize what the National Education Association stands for; they're not hiding it. It's appalling to many of our conservative Christian educators who, in their own lives, could not support this kind of thing but find that their dues are being used to support just those kinds of thing," he adds.
Laursen also tells OneNewsNow there was a movement this year to see the NEA's pro-abortion stance changed to a more neutral position, but that effort failed. "The organization and its delegates were just unwilling to step back and take no position on abortion," he laments. "They're going to continue their pro-abortion stance."
We can’t have prayer in school, but the NEA thinks that we should have abortions and distribute condoms?

I looked at their list and also found the "No cocktail left behind" caucus and the "Sparks" caucus, whatever that is.
There is a notation that the list of caucuses does not mean they are officially recognized by NEA governing bodies.
AS a former member of the NEA, I know that member dues are not used for political donations. PACs are organized for that.
Despite their statement.
The NEA does not place education for teh kids very high on the list of priorities.
Increasing paid membership, more money, less work, no accountability. Those are the piorities of the NEA
