Then y’all Union trashEvery district has a union, still can’t strike. If you strike or encourage others to strike, you will be fired.
Why Florida Teachers Cannot Strike the Way Chicago Teachers Can
Teachers across the state are showing their support for Chicago teachers on strike -- by wearing red. Florida teachers are not allowed to go on strike because of collective bargaining and because Florida is a right-to-work state. Teachers get to negotiate their contracts and working...stateimpact.npr.org
And paying union dues for nothing

The laws of the state are trash
If Cali changed its laws to match Florida, your union could be in the same position.

They’re not paying dues probably. That’s what right to work does, takes their money away to weaken them.
I pay less than 1k a year in dues. I’d gladly pay that over paying for benefits and having a trash wage. If you took my job and put it in Florida I’d make half the money, right to work states wages are a joke for construction except Nevada is ok because vegas. They make you join and pay dues whether you want to or not.
idk how you can be pro union and vote republican.

As Rusty mentioned, white supremacy and its ability to obscure material interests.
I can also see Republicans in Unions, especially if it’s not a teachers, telling themselves that their union is important e.g. police or “skilled trade” while other unions or unions writ large are bad and serve to coddle “unskilled” work and/or people with “women’s studies degrees.”

naturally we all say our union is better than the next but it’s just jokes. Kind of like making fun of someone’s sports team.

I know that Walker went to war against non police public sector unions and won.
The people who drive from Wisconsin to Minneapolis, I assume are unionized workers in the building trades?

I’m a teacher in Florida and I am not a union member. I am currently heading into my eleventh year and have been at the same school for the past ten. I had been a member my first few years. After my third year our district downsized and 1/7 of our workforce got laid off. I was safe, but a 60 year old sociopath who had been reprimanded numerous times for nutty behavior got canned. She got the union involved and they backed her for my position, despite the fact that she did not have the certifications necessary for the position. I went to meet with the union leaders and all they talked about was district conspiracy theories. It was clear that they had no idea what was in the contract. Luckily, our enrollment went up and I got my position back anyways. I withdrew my membership after that. I am “pro-union” just not this union.
