Thanks to NJEdReport for posting Sunlight’s recent research on the Education Truth Project, a new dark money Super PAC that very much looks like it’s funded by the NJEA.  The ETP augments a broader NJEA campaign to enlist teachers to fight the wave of parents running for school board this fall.  Such a campaign puts teachers…Read More

Sunlight is happy to see its research used by people running for office in New Jersey regardless of their political affiliation.  In a TAPinto press release, Bob Healey called on his opponent, Rep. Andy Kim, to condemn the NJEA’s apparent creation of a dark money PAC aimed at fighting parents in school board elections. Sunlight…Read More

Thanks once again to NJEdReport for reposting Sunlight’s blog.  The main point is that property taxpayers will be paying for almost all of the increase in teachers’ healthcare premiums thanks to a 2020 backroom deal cut by then-Sen. Sweeney and the NJEA.  The ancillary point is that NJ101.5 should have done some research rather than misreporting…Read More

Thanks (again) to NJEdReport for amplifying and augmenting Sunlight’s research.  NJEdReport adds in language from NJSBA about the cost of the increases to NJ school districts and correctly identifies that it is property taxpayers and kids who will pay.Read More

Thanks to NJEdReport for augmenting and amplifying Sunlight’s research on how the NEA (and NJEA) knew about young teachers’ disaffection from the modern-day, union-dominated teaching profession.  The young teachers cared about students and instruction, and wanted less politics and less seniority.  The NJEA and NEA gave them more politics and more seniority.  No wonder there’s a…Read More

Thanks once again to NJEdReport for amplifying Sunlight’s voice.  NJ needs to learn how the NJEA is pushing teachers to take sides against parents who dare to speak up at school board meetings.  The facts show that it is the NJEA that is injecting politics into our schools.Read More

Thanks to Chalkboard Review for covering our two reports.  We’re glad to see a news outlet that’s willing to publish the FACTS about how the NJEA believes that “Teaching is political” and how it is pushing teachers to become local political activists.  Too bad New Jersey’s news media cannot bring themselves to report on these facts.Read More

Thanks once again to NJEdReport for augmenting and amplifying Sunlight’s work.  They provide and excellent take on the facts we present.Read More

Thanks to NJEdReport for adding its take on Sunlight’s research.  We want to note again that Sunlight is using the NJEA’s and the Radical Pedagogy Institutes own words to describe what they are doing.  We were shocked at what we found.Read More

As always, NJEdReport adds its own take on the big news that former-ADP CEO Josh Weston, one of New Jersey’s most famous and successful businessmen, finds the NJEA leadership’s lavish compensation to be “outrageous.”   He thinks Gov. Murphy should claw some back, which Murphy will never do because he is very cozy with the…Read More
