DeSantis-signed law could shut down the Miami-Dade teachers union

[SugarDaddy1]

The Miami-Dade teachers union is facing the possibility of decertification in the next two years after it failed to collect dues from a sufficient percentage of members, as required by state law.

Under the provisions of Florida Senate Bill 256, which was signed into law this year by Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL), at least 60% of a public sector union's members must pay dues; if they don't, the union could be decertified.

Earlier this month, the United Teachers of Dade, the teachers union for Miami-Dade County Public Schools, announced that it had failed to meet the 60% threshold and that the process to decertify the union has begun.

In addition to SB 256, the DeSantis administration in Florida has passed a number of laws targeting public sector unions. The governor has also signed legislation barring unions from automatically collecting dues from member paychecks, a policy change that is credited with making it more difficult for unions to collect dues and thus meet the 60% membership dues requirement.

lol

"United Teachers of Dade (UTD) officials announced they had only 58.4% membership as of Nov. 10, just shy of the new 60% requirement"

I'm pretty sure they'll meet the 60% threshold now, due to the threat of de-certification . After all it was DeSantis who created the requirement anyhow...

Time to go bump your 62% thread.....everyone needs a reminder of your stupidity!!

Public employees should not be allowed to unionize. Hopefully this is the beginning of a trend.

Care to expand on your opinion with some reasons why?

Because he’s afraid of people & things.

He probably thinks there shouldn't be any public employees in the first place.

 

[Fuzzy1975]

Nope.

lol That's some convictions you hold, afraid to express them in a public forum.

Given how open he is with his anti-Semitism and transphobia, you've got to wonder just how horrible his reasoning is if he's not willing to explain it!

That's the way you do it!!!!

Teacher's unions are a pernicious evil like all public sector unions.

Government negotiating with itself.

 

[JoePepsiCo]

Let me rephrase that.

The community should impose standards and curriculum on teachers, not the other way around.

 

[Fuzzy1975]

See why I don’t bother explaining things to you people?

It might deprive you of the opportunity to fantasize about me and my thoughts. This is way more fun!

When I ask a person to explain their reasoning, and that person fails to provide a reason, it doesn't lead me to fantasising about their reason.

I just shrug them off as another person who bases their reasons on emotion, not facts.

Seems FDR was wrong. History has proven that.

Step 1. Ascertain the proportion of workers in an industry who belong to a union. Answer = x.
Step 2. Pass a law that requires that a union must have a membership of (x+1)% before it's allowed to be recognized by the employer.
Step 3. Unrecognize said union.
Step 4. You're a MAGAT, celebrate!

Teachers have never been able to "impose standards and curriculum" on anyone; they have always had regulations to follow.

It has also managed to bankrupt state treasuries with its organized crime tactics.

That they don't have to follow when they operate with impunity under the protections of the governmental-union complex that makes it impossible to fire them for everything from propagandizing the students to having relations with them outside of the classroom, hence the term "Rubber Room."

I don't think that you are stupid, so this must be willful ignorance in the advancement of your cause(s).

Show us that anywhere in Trump's platform or you're a lying, hysterical celebratory Socialist.

No, Joe, the teachers' union does not protect teachers from prosecution for statutory rape. As for "propagandizing the students", that's a wonderfully vague charge, classic Southern strategy there. You didn't actually say "I don't want teachers to teach kids not to be homophobes or transphobes like their parents," so I'm sure you've got yourself convinced you meant something else. Please feel free to explain just what else you meant.

trumps platform does not include actual thought.

That is how it works.

Try rephrasing this again, in a manner that reflects reality. Who was it again deciding which books were going to be in the classrooms? The teachers union you say???

The best thing that could happen to public schools.
