Speaker 1 (00:00):
For months, the Chicago Teachers Union has forbidden their teachers
to show up at city schools because of the coronavirus,
despite the fact that schools do not contribute to the
spread of the illness, according to the CDC. So lately,
the Chicago Teachers Union has been negotiating with school administrators
who want to begin the process of reopening the schools

(00:22):
on a gradual basis, something other cities and states have
been doing for months. But on Sunday, the rank and
file democrats excuse me, the rank and file union members
and voted overwhelmingly to give administrators the collective middle finger.
They said they would not return to the classroom despite
an order requiring ten thousand teachers to show up this week.

(00:44):
Chicago Mayor Laurie Lightweight is pleading with the union to
return to work, to no avail. Thousands of Chicagoans have
been thrown out of work, many evicted because of the shutdown.
Scores of small businesses have closed their doors for good.
Parents who can't afford to pay somebody to watch their
kids are forced to remain at home, can't go to

(01:05):
work or look for work. All the while these union
members have been getting their paychecks and they still refuse
to go back to work. This is what your Democrat parties,
endless shutdowns are doing to America, and they couldn't care less.
This is exactly what they want to happen.
