Colorado Teachers Unions Under Threat

While CSEA is the first major union to fall in recent history, other districts are testing the waters. The Woodland Park School District recently settled with the teachers union after they had violated teachers First Amendment rights. It is illegal to require approval of bosses before being allowed to discuss working conditions with the press or on social media. Without the union, it would have been harder to pursue holding the district accountable for breaking labor law. While this was a win, the union, and teachers are still under threat.
