Hello,

I was wondering if any other teachers feel that the MEA has completely sold out and is doing a horrible job representing us? First, there was that awful retirement incentive plan, now they're reforming tenure and caving in to everything the Republicans want, before the new Governor has even asked anything of them! The Dems are not standing up for us either!

Public employees are under attack because of the budget deficits, but we don't have to be the punching bags for everyone in the state. Teachers are being attacked by groups like the Tea party, the right, and even the Dems (who were traditionally for us). I don't feel that the $2,000.00 a year that I pay to the MEA is money well spent. I feel the MEA has given in too much and we should protest and refuse to pay dues. Just curious how other feel about the MEA.
