Teachers know what works in their classrooms. Yet too often, their voices are drowned out by powerful teachers unions with political agendas. Education reform should be driven by those teaching our children, not union bosses. magnoliatribune.com/2026/10/…

Florida is attracting major manufacturers and creating new opportunities for workers. Its right-to-work laws ensure employees can decide for themselves whether to join or financially support a union. That decision belongs to individual workers, not union leadership. foxbusiness.com/economy/flor…

Since removing Right to Work, Michigan is DEAD LAST in employment gains and losses. This statistic showcases the negative side effects of taking away worker freedom.

Republican lawmakers cannot allow themselves to be fooled by “private-sector” unions. Organized labor leadership represents leftism at its core. By empowering one union boss, Republicans are empowering them all. washingtonexaminer.com/op-ed…

When labor policies prioritize worker voice, unions must actually earn their support. FL's 60% threshold means Duval Teachers United faces a recertification election. Empower workers. Enforce accountability. Protect employee choice. jacksonville.com/story/news/…

Schools should put student literacy ahead of special interests. States with weaker union influence have moved faster on proven reading reforms and are seeing stronger results. nypost.com/2026/09/15/us-new…

When powerful teachers unions drive education policy, students can get left behind. A new analysis found stronger union influence is associated with weaker literacy outcomes and fewer proven reading reforms. nypost.com/2026/09/15/us-new…

Major victory for educational freedom! The AZ Supreme Court ruled Prop 212 will NOT make the ballot after union bosses and out-of-state special interests used convicted felons, sex offenders, and human traffickers to collect signatures. The court proved unions will stop at nothing to handcuff kids to failing government-run schools and strip away parental rights. Arizona families win, union bosses lose! goldwaterinstitute.org/union…
