The National Education Association (NEA)—the nation’s largest public sector teachers’ union with a budget of over $300 million—has sued a Rhode Island mom for asking what her daughter would be taught in kindergarten. With the help of the Goldwater Institute, Rhode Island mom Nicole Solas is fighting back.
“This brazen and unprecedented act of intimidation by the NEA will not stand,” said Jon Riches, Director of National Litigation at the Goldwater Institute, who is representing Solas. “Nicole Solas is entitled to know what her daughter’s school is teaching in the classroom. She’s entitled to ask questions. And she does not deserve to face legal action just for asking questions any concerned parent would ask.”
Like many parents, Nicole was concerned about whether her daughter would be exposed to politically charged curriculum in the classroom. So in April, Nicole emailed the principal of her school in the South Kingstown School District asking for the kindergarten curriculum—and whether it would include teaching children politically charged materials, including those influenced by Critical Race Theory and gender theory, holding them out to be true. She immediately faced stonewalling from the school, and even a threat of legal action for asking too many questions. Ultimately, Nicole received a bill for $74,000 to fulfill a public records request filed by the Goldwater Institute on her behalf in July.
If that were not enough, Nicole is now facing an unprecedented lawsuit by the NEA, a veritable goliath of a public sector union, representing over 2.3 million people nationwide. She is under attack with the costs and expenses associated with defending herself in a lawsuit for simply acting as a conscientious parent. This is not the first time that the NEA has shown that it’s more concerned with politics and indoctrination than actually helping kids learn and succeed. At the 2019 Representative Assembly of the NEA, the union’s delegates voted down a proposed resolution that called on the organization to “rededicate itself to the pursuit of increased student learning in every public school in America by putting a renewed emphasis on quality education” and “make student learning the priority of the Association.” Nicole, though, is determined to put her daughter’s education first and refuses to be deterred by the union’s politically motivated attack.

So,we have to abolish them.
Intimidation and coercion are key elements used by the NEA and their Marxist agents to discourage parental involvement and dissent... it is time to countersue or better to initiate a host of massive class-action suits in response to the Lefts use of the courts and its expensive and time-consuming process to discourage parents from acting to legally defend their children from the social and moral abuse of the NEA
In fact, child abuse and endangerment CRIMINAL COMPLAINT ought to be routinely filed against teachers and administrators for exposing children to sexually explicit material and content among other abusive acts labeled education. Contact your local prosecutors ... but take an attorney with you when you do... for your own protection and to ensure the charges are acted upon.
Make a Stand in You LOCAL and STATE Governments-!!! IT STARTS AT HOME-!!!
Don't waste your time with the local or State legislative bodies... go to prosecutors and engage in criminal complaints of child abuse and endangerment for the lude and sexuallly explicit content of the curriculum being taught. Demand hate crime indictments are issued against principals and superintendents for teaching Critical Race Theory or programs that target white children or males for abuse and bullying.
It is past time the conservative organizations go after the criminal conduct waged against our children in our Public Schools... and if the local prosecutor will not help find an attorney and file a major class action suite with one of the complaints in the civil action being lodged against the prosecutor for allowing the criminal abuse of our children to take place. We must engage the left with thousand of such lawsuits.
This is where our conservative groups should focus their spending... using lawsuit settlements to finance more lawsuits. We must be wise in how we reform government. Put the law to work for our cause... much of what happens in Pubic Schools today takes on the form of child abuse and or endangerment go after the educators... Stop the hate crimes and speech... stop the bullying of our children and the physical and psychological abuse of our children.
When Teachers became Union Members, "Educators" disappeared from America.
