NEA Allies Itself With Far Left Groups


The National Education Association is getting in bed with far-left groups like MoveOn.org, ACORN, and Campaign for America’s Future to launch a new campaign called “National Mobilization for Great Public Schools.”  This “coalition certainly isn't about any new policy directions,” says Capital Research Center’s David Hogberg in an article in the American Spectator Online.  Rather, the “purpose of the coalition is mobilizing the grassroots to pressure politicians to spend more money on public education.”  The NEA seems unconcerned that they are allying themselves with the far left for this campaign.  "I've always said we will work with anybody that has goals and objectives of increasing support for quality education,” said Reg Weaver, president of the NEA, in a conference call with reporters last week.  To read more, see the article in the Spectator.
