GOP Seeks to Revoke NEA Federal Charter

News summary

Republican lawmakers, led by Rep. Mark Harris (R-NC) and Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), have introduced the National Education Association Charter Repeal Act in both chambers of Congress, seeking to revoke the federal charter of the National Education Association (NEA). The NEA, the nation's largest teachers union, is accused by supporters of the bill of prioritizing partisan advocacy over its educational mission, following controversial resolutions labeling former President Trump a fascist and supporting divisive gender ideologies. The union's recent decision to distance itself from the Anti-Defamation League has also drawn criticism. Activists such as Corey DeAngelis and groups like Moms for Liberty have joined Republican lawmakers in questioning the NEA’s influence and its impact on student outcomes. NEA President Becky Pringle has defended the union, emphasizing its commitment to combatting all forms of discrimination, including antisemitism. The bill highlights ongoing disputes over the NEA’s political involvement and its effect on education policy.
