Teachers Take Interest In Legislation

There are several reasons why teachers are taking an interest in legislation establishing a "Fair Labor Relations Law."
1. Maryland is the only state without an independent labor relations body to listen to and be a judge in a dispute over a negotiated agreement.
2. The bargaining parties can go to impasse and have an independent arbitrator make a judgment, but that judgment can be thrown out by the Board of Education.
3. Education Support Personnel can be dismissed from their job without the benefit of hearing the cause for their dismaissal.
