Editorial: Union on strike call: ‘We are left no other choice’

How ironic that in announcing the illegal strike of public school teachers and education service workers Monday evening in front of the Senate chambers at the State Capitol, union chief Fred Albert stated: “We are left with no choice.” Thank you, Mr. President of the West Virginia branch of the American Federation of Teachers, for stating succinctly and strongly how most parents of school-age kids in West Virginia feel. They don’t have a choice of where they send their kids to school.
