Reject CTA Promoted Extremism in California Classrooms
AB 715 is a civil rights measure that reinforces California’s Education Code. It ensures that public classrooms remain spaces for balanced education - not political activism - particularly when it comes to sensitive issues like Israel, Zionism, and Jewish identity.
The California Teachers Association (CTA) opposes AB 715. While claiming to defend academic freedom, the CTA has promoted educators who espouse radical ideologies - including rhetoric that demonizes Israel and pushes extremist “resistance” narratives rooted in antisemitism.
AB 715 does not ban discussion or suppress free speech. It affirms that no student should be subjected to biased instruction that undermines their identity or safety. The Senate Education Committee must reject the CTA’s argument and affirm a basic principle: civil rights come before politics.
Repeal California's Harmful Ethnic Studies Mandate | June 5, 2025
This deeply flawed and costly mandate forces students to take ethnic studies courses with no agreed upon subject matter, content standards, proven academic benefits or oversight—effectively handing curriculum design to outside ideological consultants and activist networks.
Since AB 101 was passed—even as it remains unfunded and inoperative—we’ve seen districts like San Francisco, Los Gatos, and Santa Clara adopt curricula that portray Hamas as peaceful and glorify its violence. In Sequoia Union, students are told Israel is “illegal.” In Santa Ana, where a lawsuit was filed over its ethnic studies program, Jews were labeled “oppressors" and internal documents referred to community concerns as the “Jewish question.”
The danger is real. The harm is growing.
AB 101 must be repealed—before more damage is done.
Take Action and Demand LAUSD Reject UTLA’s Anti-Jewish Agenda | APRIL 7, 2025
In recent weeks, the United Teachers of Los Angeles, or UTLA, passed multiple resolutions targeting Jewish-led organizations, rejecting Holocaust education, and promoting anti-Israel extremism in LA classrooms:
-
Voted to sever ties with the ADL—calling it a “genocide denier.”
-
Voted to reject antisemitism education from the Jewish Federation of Los Angeles—slandering it with the same label.
-
Condemned UCLA and LAUSD for working with Jewish groups and promoting Holocaust education.
-
Replaced mainstream antisemitism training with extremist-aligned organizations like PARCEO.
-
Used false claims of “US-Israeli genocide in Gaza” to justify its campaign of exclusion.
