Duval Teachers United to Hold Recertification Vote After Membership Decline

Duval Teachers United (DTU) will undergo a recertification election because its membership fell below the state's new 60% threshold. Union President Tammie Brooks-Evans reported membership at 57.3% for teachers, 52.3% for paraprofessionals, and 44.2% for office personnel. This mandates a vote where at least 50% of employees in each unit must participate to recertify the union.
