The 36th District Democrats passed a “resolution” stating their support for the state Supreme Court’s ruling against charter schools this week. The resolution serves as more proof of Democrats’ true priority: special interests rather than education.
The 36th District Democrats’ resolution should come as no surprise. They are taking their cue from their party leader. Jay Inslee did not support the 2012 charter school initiative—he was and remains indebted to the Washington Education Association (WEA), a union that put $1 million into electing him in 2012.
Our green governor continues to prove his commitment to the WEA by refusing to call a special legislative session to resolve the problem created by the court’s decision.
Meanwhile, the WEA is still celebrating the court’s decision as a years-in-the-making victory. The WEA’s began its fight to prevent underprivileged children from the choice of attending schools that work when it contributed the maximum amount to the campaigns of four out of the six justices who ruled against charter schools.
For what it’s worth, WEA executives can now rest assured that they have the 36th District Democrats to celebrate with them.
Don’t piss off the donor base! WEA has them in their back pocket. Shame they don’t care about our kids
The dem party in this state and the state supreme court is bought and paid for by public sector unions, WEA, SEIU, etc. Corruption reigns in the dem party.
So pass a “resolution” condemning the democrat failure to properly fund Education, Andy Hill and the Republican’s did and continue to do a great job of balancing the budget and funding education. They just do not siphon money off to the democrat controlled unions or is it the union controlled democrats, tough to tell.
Crooks all either way.
Time to shut down the WEA and prosecute all involved.
Take the money the unions and the WEA steal and give the teachers a huge raise, they deserve it.
They could NOT do otherwise..How else can they increase their ‘vacuum brains’ if NO COMMON CORE or Charter Schools are NOT available..to metastisize their Cyborg ‘species ?
