“You don’t make radical changes in times of trouble,” Marilyn Stewart told the Chicago Sun-Times on Saturday. 20,000 of the 26,000 members of the Chicago Teachers Union voted on Friday and barely a third seem to agree with Stewart. Her opponent in the June 11 runoff is Karen Lewis who headed the CORE caucus slate of candidates. “But Lewis posed this question: ‘And exactly what has this experience gotten us?’ Lewis maintained Saturday that Chicago has seen an influx of charter schools and ‘lots of union jobs lost’ in recent years that her caucus already has been fighting against.”

For a few days following the General Assembly adjournment there was a flurry of posts on the IEA web site about IEA political endorsements (actually IPACE recommendations).

I searched. “IPACE recommendation procedures.” Nothing.
