She suggested that the declining financial situation of Chicago Public Schools (CPS) is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/make-a-wish-is-only-granting-wishes-to-kids-who-get-covid-vaccine\/\" title=\"Make-A-Wish Is Only Granting Wishes To Kids Who Get COVID Vaccine\">primarily due<\/a> to external politics, specifically blaming President Donald Trump for a budget deficit exceeding half a billion dollars. Gates voiced concerns about how <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >budget decisions directly impact students<\/a>,citing instances where schools lacked essential teachers due to funding choices.<\/p>\n<p>Her stance was further articulated when she declared that &#8220;the children are always ours,&#8221; implying that educators have an ownership or guardianship role over students. This remark was met with both applause and criticism, as it seems to suggest that teachers, particularly those aligned with the Chicago Teachers Union, believe they have authority over childrenS education rather than the parents. Gates emphasized the importance of community and collective responsibility in education, sparking backlash from those who felt her comments indicative of a larger agenda of indoctrination rather than quality education.<\/p>\n<p>Gates&#8217; rhetoric has positioned her as a polarizing figure in the ongoing debates around public schooling and parental rights, igniting discussions about the role of educators and the influence of unions in education policy.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_1)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Meet Stacy Davis Gates, the newest reason for you to homeschool your children.<\/p>\n<p>That&rsquo;s not her official job title, but it might as well be &mdash; at least if you live in one of America&rsquo;s biggest cities. Davis Gates is the president of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/outrage-woke-chicago-teachers-union-blindsides-public-leaving-340000-students-utter-crisis\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Chicago Teachers Union<\/a>, a position she&rsquo;s already been immensely quotable in. (My <a href=\"https:\/\/wirepoints.org\/cost-stop-asking-that-question-says-chicago-teachers-union-president-about-contact-demands-in-strident-speech-wirepoints\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">personal favorite<\/a>, from last March: &ldquo;They&rsquo;re gonna say, &lsquo;these are great proposals and can&rsquo;t nobody pay for it and CTU with all of this, that and the other and who&rsquo;s gonna pay for it, Stacy?&rsquo; &hellip; Stop asking that question. Ask another question.&rdquo;)<\/p>\n<p>On Monday, she was speaking at the City Club of Chicago, and the takeaway she wanted was for the city&rsquo;s residents to blame President Donald Trump, not the city&rsquo;s broken politics, for the fact that Chicago Public Schools are running a deficit of over a half a billion dollars. (Maybe they&nbsp;<em>should<\/em> have asked &ldquo;that question,&rdquo; after all.)<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The budget and its choices manifest into real impact that our young people get to experience,&rdquo; Davis Gates said in the appearance, according to the <a href=\"https:\/\/chicago.suntimes.com\/education\/2025\/06\/23\/ctu-chief-stacy-davis-gates-argues-cps-needs-to-borrow-to-avoid-cuts\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Chicago Sun-Times<\/a>. &ldquo;So choices about the budget left students at Julian High School in 2025 without a math teacher for nearly a year, Clemente high school without a chemistry teacher &hellip; Those are not occurrences. Those are choices.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>It&rsquo;s worth pointing out that CPS doesn&rsquo;t have a whole lot of good choices on the table; the mayor Davis Gates supports, progressive Democrat Brandon Johnson, doesn&rsquo;t have the money to give them, and neither does the City Council. That means taking out a loan or facing cuts. But I digress, since that wasn&rsquo;t the only failure of public schools that she pointed out during her speech &mdash; although the second, and arguably more important, was rather unintentional.<\/p>\n<p> <script type=\"text\/javascript\"> \t\t\tif ( getCookie( \"ff_subbed\" ) ) { \t\t\t\tdocument.getElementById(\"stnvideo\").remove() \t\t\t} else { \t\t\t\tdocument.addEventListener(\"DOMContentLoaded\", function() { \t\t\t\t\tfunction loadScript(src) { \t\t\t\t\t\tconst script=document.createElement(\"script\"); \t\t\t\t\t\tscript.src=src; \t\t\t\t\t\tscript.async=true; \t\t\t\t\t\tdocument.body.appendChild(script); \t\t\t\t\t} \t\t\t\t\tfunction findPreviousParagraph(selector, x) { \t\t\t\t\t\tconst targetElement=document.querySelector(selector); \t\t\t\t\t\tif (!targetElement) { \t\t\t\t\t\t\tconsole.warn(\"Target element not found.\"); \t\t\t\t\t\t\treturn null; \t\t\t\t\t\t}  \t\t\t\t\t\t\/\/ Get all <\/p>\n<p> elements in order as they appear in the document \t\t\t\t\t\tlet paragraphs=Array.from(document.querySelectorAll(\"p\"));  \t\t\t\t\t\t\/\/ Find the index of the last <\/p>\n<p> before the target element \t\t\t\t\t\tlet targetIndex=paragraphs.findIndex(p=> p.compareDocumentPosition(targetElement) & Node.DOCUMENT_POSITION_PRECEDING);  \t\t\t\t\t\tif (targetIndex===-1 || targetIndex <x) { \t\t\t\t\t\t\tconsole.warn(\"Not enough paragraphs before the target element.\"); \t\t\t\t\t\t\treturn null; \t\t\t\t\t\t}  \t\t\t\t\t\treturn paragraphs[targetIndex - x]; \t\t\t\t\t}  \t\t\t\t\t\/\/ Set up IntersectionObserver \t\t\t\t\tfunction observeElement(element) { \t\t\t\t\t\tif (!element) return;  \t\t\t\t\t\tconst observer=new IntersectionObserver( \t\t\t\t\t\t\t(entries)=> { \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tentries.forEach(entry=> { \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tif (entry.isIntersecting) { \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tconsole.log(\"Paragraph is now visible:\", entry.target.textContent.trim()); \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tloadScript(\"https:\/\/embed.sendtonews.com\/player3\/embedcode.js?fk=s28Az7AY\"); \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tobserver.disconnect(); \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t} \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t}); \t\t\t\t\t\t\t}, \t\t\t\t\t\t\t{ threshold: 0.5 } \/\/ Adjust threshold as needed \t\t\t\t\t\t);  \t\t\t\t\t\tobserver.observe(element); \t\t\t\t\t}  \t\t\t\t\t\/\/ Find the 1st paragraph before #stnvideo and observe it \t\t\t\t\tlet paragraphToObserve=findPreviousParagraph(\"#stnvideo\", 2); \t\t\t\t\tobserveElement(paragraphToObserve); \t\t\t\t}); \t\t\t} \t\t<\/script> <\/p>\n<p>She argued <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/chicago-teacher-accuses-white-parents-trying-kill-black-people-wanting-schools-open\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">that her schools<\/a> &mdash; which she admitted are hemorrhaging money and can&rsquo;t educate your kids &mdash; basically own your children.<\/p>\n<p>The remarks came after she noted that &ldquo;one of the first social studies lessons taught in kindergarten classrooms is of community&rdquo; and because of this, kids &ldquo;come to understand the connectedness of people and institutions.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The attack on the idea of community is exactly the point,&rdquo; she said, pointing to the &ldquo;right-wing outrage&rdquo; over a teacher who quoted African-American author <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/pc-police-now-want-john-waynes-name-removed-airport\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">James Baldwin<\/a> during a rally last year: &ldquo;The children are always ours,&rdquo; she said. &ldquo;Every single one of them, all over the globe.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;And what comes next is, &lsquo;CTU, you think your children are its children,&rsquo;&rdquo; she said with a derisive sneer.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Yes.

Recently, during a speech at the City Club of Chicago, she urged residents to hold President Donald Trump accountable for the significant financial issues facing Chicago Public Schools rather than blaming local politics. Davis Gates highlighted how budget decisions directly affect students&#8217; experiences in schools like Julian High School and Clemente High School, where critical teaching positions have gone unfilled due to funding choices. Despite acknowledging that CPS is struggling financially and unable to provide adequate education, she asserted that educators have a vested interest in all children&#8217;s well-being and education-a stance that has sparked considerable debate online regarding public schooling&#8217;s role versus parental choice in education<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2451196,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Davis-Gates.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[32823,5152,5007,4605,5038],"class_list":["post-2451195","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-child-welfare","tag-education","tag-parents","tag-teachers","tag-unions"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Davis-Gates.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2451195","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2451195"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2451195\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2451199,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2451195\/revisions\/2451199"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2451196"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2451195"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2451195"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2451195"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
