UTLA to stage one day strike on May 15

From the Los Angeles Times.
The union representing Los Angeles teachers is moments away from announcing plans for a one-day strike on May 15 to protest the pending layoffs of as many as 3,500 teachers.
The tentative plan has teachers picketing outside their schools that morning, then meeting at one or more locations for an afternoon rally. Demonstrators would be protesting against increased class sizes for students in the Los Angeles Unified School District as well as the layoffs.
No doubt the choice of the May 15 date has to do with the Special Election Day on May 19.
Look for other unions to replicate UTLA actions with work place activities to bring out the vote on Prop 1A-1F.
In the words of Nancy Reagan, "JUST SAY NO!!"
****Maybe the march organizers should of hired those professional protestors from ACORN??

Just say NOBODY CARES.
Let's see... LAUSD employs 80,000 people, 20,000 of those teachers. Maybe if they dumped HALF of their 60,000 non-teachers those teachers wouldn't have to strinke...
The strike is illegal and contrary to the existing collective bargaining agreement, yet the UTLA plans to do it on May 15.
What ever happened to the rule of law?
The UTLA needs new leadership.
I TOLD ALL THESE TEACHERS THEY WOULD LOSE JOBS IF THEY STAYED WITH TONY V BUT THEY DIDN'T LISTEN OR CARE. NOW LOOK WHO'SORRY!!!!
