That the president of the UFT has the audacity to spend members dues monies on promoting any aspect of the governors agenda is truly beyond belief. They are worried plenty about the supreme court ruling on dues check-off, as they should be. With collaborations such as this many members will welcome the opportunity to disassociate themselves with this self serving leadership. <br />They are certainly not interested in those they represent!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1628172601886929098.post-78671077787220739512016-01-15T19:46:21.453-05:002016-01-15T19:46:21.453-05:00Join ST Caucus

But, is it really desertion if we seek new representation? I'll gladly pay the $1,000 to a real union that really represents me. But, this ad buy is so insulting.<br /><br />I assume we can't decertify the UFT at the building level. But, maybe something else can be done. Perhaps giving to an unofficial union? Maybe my line of thinking is merely what the unity gang crows about when they cry "dual unionism." But, unions started out as mutual aid societies, and that's kind of what I'm looking for.<br /><br />So frustrated with the out-of-touch UFT.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1628172601886929098.post-35114737309870796232016-01-15T17:58:02.351-05:002016-01-15T17:58:02.351-05:00This ad is as preposterous as those sponsored by t...This ad is as preposterous as those sponsored by the Committee to Save NY.
