Politics, Unions & Teacher Union Dues

Our hard earned tax dollars at work.

Some people do not realize that Teachers are paid with taxpayer money, along with their Medical Benefits, Pension and of course Union Dues…..

This article appeared on today's nj.com website, it is not really about teachers pay, but it is
about underhanded Union actions.

Take time to read the comments section attached to the above article, interesting !

Yes, Policastro is a teacher in Tenafly,NJ and as of December 2016 he was earning $101,690 annually. The article does NOT indicate that he is/was also the 1st Vice President of the Bergen County Education Association, and in 2014/15 did earn a salary there of $ 44,000.00 as 2nd Vice President. Policastro's wife Denise is a Field Rep with NJEA. They live in the Smoke Rise section of Kinnelon. Good Luck to him…..

I began looking at the Union's associated with teachers, found some surprising stuff.

This is what the "Executive/Officers" at the New Jersey Education Association get paid.

YOUR TAX DOLLARS ARE PAYING THESE SALARIES !!!!

Which one of these Unions do Teachers have to be in? Just one or all?

 It appears that most of the above is just pushing politics.....nothing really to do with the education of students, oh the unions and their leaders put up a great front, but bottom line, it is all about money for them, and more money for them.

 

 The Union minions are just that minions. (some are also bullies)

 

To any good, self-respecting teacher, the Union's actions are revolting.

 Another person's opnion...

So I will venture to say that all Lodi's Unionized Teachers will HAVE to vote for "Murphy" as required by the Unions !!!

  And the next time teachers want a raise and their Union want sympathy from the Public, you will not be getting mine. You have to step forward and start to complain about the actions of your Union representatives (bullies)....and do something about it, otherwise you might as well be added to the list of minions too.
