Teachers’ unions are in the thick of some of the fiercest ever socio-political and cultural wars being waged by the right against educators, the profession itself, and the continued ability of unions to represent educational workers at all. In states like Florida, they are struggling against censorship, attempts by Governor DeSantis and his allies in the legislature to shape curriculum and make it less inclusive, and the governing of schools and the guidance educators receive has become, as a result, less democratic and more reactionary in nature.
