Watchdog report exposes teachers' union 'political machine' funneling more than $1 billion to liberal causes

A watchdog report by Defending Education reveals that U.S. teachers' unions, including the NEA and AFT, have spent over $1 billion on political causes since 2015, prioritizing left-wing activism over classroom needs. Funds were directed to progressive groups, Democratic-aligned PACs, and campaigns opposing school choice, with unions criticized as a 'political machine' advancing a 'social justice agenda.'
