| CA Teachers Union Planning Takeover Of State Capital To Force High Taxes |
| 2011-04-13 |
| The California Teachers Association is preparing for Wisconsin-type activities aimed at forcing the legislature to pass tax increases on Californians in a series of actions planned for next month culminating in a takeover of the State Capitol. Many of the steps outlined in CTA plans include the use of students, taxpayer-funded public school facilities to which the union has access, and highly controversial "secondary boycott" tactics that involve targeting businesses in the districts of legislators who refuse to accede to union demands. The union is conducting its actions in support of taxes under the guise of a "State of Emergency." Union officials were clearly caught off guard today when their plans were leaked, which had been posted on a nondescript website for union organizers only. They can be viewed via these links: STATE OF EMERGENCY State Council Ideas for Action: This comprehensive 10-page outline of protest actions is a must-read. It includes the highly controversial secondary boycott, use of kids and classrooms to which the union has access, "letters home to parents," use of parent-teacher conferences, and more. This document is no longer posted on the CTA's State of Emergency website. STATE OF EMERGENCY Plan of Action Summary of the union plans leading up to and during the week of May 9.
