The NEA's Agenda

Highlights from AFA's informative webpage on the NEA:
  • NEA passed a resolution supporting homosexual marriage and adoption.
  • NEA recommended that GLBT issues be required content for teacher credentialing.
  • NEA upgraded their language from tolerance of homosexuality to acceptance and respect for homosexuality.
  • NEA refused to pass this amendment: "To protect the rights of all students, the Association believes sexual contact between education professionals and minor students is unacceptable."
  • NEA signed a letter opposing the Federal Marriage Amendment.

See the AFA page to take action.
