The Chicago Teachers Union’s social justice agenda

The Chicago Teachers Union is no longer a teachers union. It’s now a political organization dedicated to a social justice agenda. It’s why the CTU and its parent unions contributed nearly half of Brandon Johnson’s mayoral campaign funds.

Affordable housing. Defund the police. COVID lockdowns. Those are the kind of issues the CTU has focused on over the past few years. Not student outcomes.

Under the CTU, only 11 of every 100 black students in Chicago could read at grade level in 2022. In math, just 6 of every 100 black students were at grade level.
