It’s not a false dichotomy if you just look at the union’s actions.

How does opposing a vaccine mandate help students? The answer is it doesn’t, its just the union flexing its politics muscle by using the mandate as a bargaining chip.

we’re not debating vaccine mandate efficacy, we’re debating you implication that teachers aren’t in it for the students. you’re being intellectually dishonest.

You did a great job of skirting my question.

How does fighting for an exception to the vaccine mandate (one of the few for public sector in CA - LA just fired 1500 city workers) help students?

Why won’t you answer the question. If you so strongly believe that unions have students best interests in mind then the answer should be easy.

Instead you refuse to answer it.
