L.A. teachers union says schools can't reopen unless charter schools get shut down, police defunded

1. A major teachers union is claiming that the re-opening of schools in its district cannot occur without several substantial policy provisions in place, including a "moratorium" on charter schools and the defunding of local police.
2. The union also demands the implementation of a federal Medicare-for-All program, several new state-level taxes on wealthy people, and a "federal bailout" of the school district.
3. Yet the union goes even farther than those requests, calling for "local support" in the form of defunded police departments and the shuttering of charter schools.
4. United Teachers Los Angeles, a 35,000-strong union in the Los Angeles Unified School District, made those demands in a policy paper it released this week.
