Bucks County Courier Times: Experts: Teachers strike bill unlikely to pass soon
Though Pennsbury school directors voted unanimously to support a bill against teacher strikes Thursday, the state school boards association doesn’t think a legislative change will happen anytime soon.
If passed, the Strike-Free Education Act, House Bill 1369, would make teacher strikes and lockouts illegal, as well as create a more detailed timeline and rules for contract negotiation. It was unveiled in early June 2007.
