Here are two great resources to follow for those who are interested in what is going on with the National Education Association and Education Reform (in general).

NEAExposed

A LITTLE ABOUT THE NEA EXPOSED WEBSITE:

The National Education Association is the largest teachers’ union in the country, representing over 3 million members and raking in well over $300 million in dues each year.

This site explores the union’s background, its agenda for schools, political activity and its alliances with other left-leaning groups.

We provide financial information, including revenue and expenditures, as well as compensation of employees—all of which is obtained from filings with the Department of Labor.

And please do check out their sister site at Education Action Group

Who We/Education Action Group Are:

Education Action Group (EAG) is a group of citizens and school board leaders who are working to make the difficult decisions to ensure that the most tax dollars are getting directly to educating our students as possible. Two examples of areas where this can be realized are:

1. Bidding competitively for health care and

2. Bidding competitively for non-instructional services.

We understand school employee unions have made these decisions unpopular, but given the need to make wise use of tax dollars, boards are required to make sound decisions.
