“This demonstration is somewhat unique,” said Pawson.

“Usually, NEA itself does the picketing— presenting demands in front of schools or school boardbuildings in towns across America. This time, NEA itself is being picketed— by children, taxpayingparents, and educators (including NEA members)— at the union’s own convention. Ironically, NEAtouts itself to be the “champion” of all three constituencies.”

Pawson is calling on the National Teacher’s Association to repeal the pro-abortion policiessuch as Resolution I-17 (“Family Planning”).

That resolution, which uses the euphemism “reproductive freedom” another term for abortionrights, reads:

The National Education Association supports family planning, including the right toreproductive freedom. The Association urges the government to give high priority to makingavailable all methods of family planning to women and men unable to take advantage ofprivate facilities. The Association also urges the implementation of community-operated,school-based family planning clinics that will provide intensive counseling by trainedpersonnel. (1985, 1986

NEA resolutions also include comprehensive sex-education including teachings on “birthcontrol” ,”family planning”, “sexual orientation” and “gender identification.”

In addition, the teacher’s association seems very concerned about the high rate of pregnancyamong the Hispanic and Black communities, something Life Dynamics addressed in theirdocumentary film on eugenics, Maafa21:

Pro-life activist, Michele Herzog who lives in the Orlando area, said she is very concerned thatthe teacher’s association would promote the killing of children, “This is the face of abortion, thebloodied bodies of babes who died from the act of abortion,” she said while publishing signs ofthe aborted victims they are showing to NEA members as they enter the convention.

She said that some members of the convention have responded by telling the group, “this isAmerica.”

“This is the face of America, the bloodied bodies of the children cry out for justice. Yes, this is justone of many disturbing conversations coming from teachers at the NEA convention. … God havemercy!” she wrote on her Facebook page.

Herzog told Life Dynamics that the group is asking those attending the NEA Convention torepeal resolution 1-17.

“We are also here to expose abortion for what it is, the bloodied bodies of the least of these andto speak up for those who have no voice, and share the Gospel of Jesus Christ,” she said.

Pawson, who is also a member of the NJEA-NEA and a retired teacher, wants the NEA to beneutral on abortion and repeal all pro-abortion resolutions.

“We appeal to the NEA’s leadership to repeal all resolutions, policies, or activities related toabortion, however well concealed in euphemistic terminology,” he said

“We joined the union solely for collective bargaining. Not to be misrepresented on social, moral, orpolitical issues. We resent having our dues monies and names used to promote either side ofdivisive, controversial issues unrelated to our mutually agreed upon collective bargainingobjectives. NEA must repeal its ‘Family Planning Resolution’ and similar policies, if only out ofrespect for the diversity of abortion positions among NEA’s 3.2 million members,” he added.

Last week, Life Dynamics reported that a lawsuit has been filed by a veteran Pennsylvaniaschool teacher against the biggest teachers’ union in the state because she feels her FirstAmendment rights are being trampled because of the union’s support of abortion rightsgroups like Planned Parenthood.

Linda Misja filed the federal lawsuit against the Pennsylvania State Education Association inan effort to legally establish the union cannot maintain an arbitrary practice of restrictingreligious objectors’ choice of a charity.

She is also seeking injunctive relief to enforce the Court’s ruling.

Pawson points pout that 25 abortions equal 1 lost classroom and at least one lost teachingcareer.

“Since 1973, mass abortion has resulted in the loss of some sixty-million children who would

have been our students. Simultaneously, at least 100,000 teaching careers were also lost—plus many more school support-staff positions,” he said.

“A union supposedly dedicated to protecting the jobs of its dues paying members and welfare ofchildren shouldn’t be engaged in promoting the elimination of future students. It is illogical,immoral, and unethical to endorse practices which destroy the very children who eventually wouldenroll as students where NEA members teach and work,” Pawson said.
