California’s largest teachers’ union has poured unprecedented amounts of campaign dollars into local affiliates trying to boot conservative board members in school districts that have become battlegrounds for gender ideology policies...
The California Teachers Association has given some $213,000 to four local unions that are fighting to subvert or reverse school board policies that require officials to tell parents if their child begins socially transitioning at school, such as by adopting pronouns of the opposite sex and using opposite-sex bathrooms and changing rooms. The funding levels are multiple times higher than any union contributions those affiliates have previously received.
California Teachers Association president David Goldberg told EdSource last week that his group is fighting "white Christian nationalists" who want to mount a "fundamentalist attack on democracy."

How can normal people pay their dues to CTA?
That is a great question. Just like with most government work, the perks build up over time. So if you've been a teacher for a few years already, you aren't going to walk away early and give up your fat retirement. You'll just keep your mouth shut, pay your dues to CTA, and retire as soon as you are eligible.
There is actually an organization that has formed to counter the teacher's union, called the California Parents Union: https://californiaparentsunion.com. They've had quite a few teachers join who oppose the policies of the Teacher's Union.
