The Chicago Sun-Times reports that the Chicago Teachers Union is leaning against striking before the end of this school year due to a lack of teacher support.
“I get a sense that our members would not be looking at a strike in May,” the union’s vice president, Jesse Sharkey, said. If a strike were to start before the end of the school year and last all summer, teachers would lose their last paycheck of the school year and possibly their health insurance until the strike is lifted.
