The union believes that capitalism exploits children, public schools, land, labor, and resources. The resolution also states that capitalism stands in the way of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/house-passed-woke-mandate-would-force-federal-reserve-to-prioritize-racial-equity\/\" title=\"House-Passed \u2018Woke Mandate\u2019 Would Force Federal Reserve To Prioritize Racial Equity\">addressing systemic racism<\/a>, climate change, patriarchy, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/cuomo-god-isnt-finished-with-me-yet\/\" title=\"Cuomo: \u2018God Isn\u2019t Finished With Me Yet\u2019\">education inequality<\/a>, and income inequality. While the union claims that economic investment is one of its pillars, the language used on its website is not as strong as that in the resolution.<\/p>\n<h3>What the Resolution Means<\/h3>\n<p>The resolution passed during the union\u2019s 97th Annual CEA Delegate Assembly in April. While a spokesperson for the union claims that the resolution was not supposed to be \u201cactionable,\u201d one Twitter user praised the changes, claiming that the union can now \u201cadvocate and lobby for anti-capitalist policies at the [Colorado] Capitol.\u201d It is unclear what the impact of the resolution will be on the affairs of the union.<\/p>\n<h3>Republican Lawmakers Respond<\/h3>\n<p>Several Republican state lawmakers have criticized the union\u2019s stance. State Senator Mark Baisley, R-Woodland Park, has demanded answers from the leadership of the CEA, including disclosure of all resolutions approved by the voting delegates. <\/p>\n<h3>What\u2019s Next?<\/h3>\n<p>It remains to be seen how the resolution will affect the union\u2019s policies and actions. However, the CEA\u2019s opposition to capitalism is a significant development that could have far-reaching implications for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/trump-announces-new-legal-team-for-impeachment-defense-after-previous-team-collapsed\/\" title=\"Trump Announces New Legal Team For Impeachment Defense After Previous Team Collapsed\">public education<\/a> in Colorado.<\/p>\n<h3>Key Takeaways<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>The Colorado Education Association opposes capitalism and believes it exploits children, public schools, land, labor, and resources.<\/li>\n<li>The union\u2019s resolution also states that capitalism stands in the way of addressing systemic racism, climate change, patriarchy, education inequality, and income inequality.<\/li>\n<li>Republican state lawmakers have criticized the union\u2019s stance and demanded answers from its leadership.<\/li>\n<li>The impact of the resolution on the union\u2019s policies and actions remains to be seen.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Facts Inside Our Reporter\u2019s Notebook Colorado&#8217;s largest union representing the state&#8217;s public school teachers has reportedly adopted a resolution on economic equity that affirms the union\u2019s views opposing capitalism.
