Doing away with public employee unions, including public school teacher unions, should be a top Republican agenda item. Stop being intimidated by the money and political connections of these unions. Take this to the court of public opinion with righteous energy and you'll win.

Public unions of any stripe are absurd and never should have been allowed for a single minute. Every Republican politician knows this, but they rarely take the case to the public, or attempt to translate the very reasonable case against these unions into legislation.
After the mad abuses of the pandemic, how can even the weakest-spined GOP legislator or candidate think the majority of voters isn't ready to hear a strong case for breaking up these unions? It's a gift-wrapped opportunity to take a bold step that would actually change things.
Of course the union bosses will try all their old tricks - you just want to abuse workers, you hate children and education, etc. You can ROMP against them after the pandemic. They'll look ridiculous. You can stack a phone book of abuses against every page defending public unions.
If teachers want to have unions, then fine, let's privatize education so parents actually have some alternatives for a change. "Collective bargaining" should only exist in the context of choice and competition, so abuses by both unions and employers have consequences.
