The pragmatic Audrey Soglin.

There are a couple of different narratives the emerged from the L’affaire Edelman.

One was Jonah Edelman’s video narrative. The one where he came swooping into Illinois and manipulated everyone from Michael Madigan to my mama into buying into Stand for Children’s program.

In this narrative, the IEA leadership was bamboozled into backing Senate Bill 7.

Another narrative is the union’s narrative. In this story, Illinois established the model for collaboration nationwide.
