NaEd

NaEd refers to the National Education Association, a labor union in the United States representing public school educators. Founded in 1857, the NEA is the largest labor union in the country and is affiliated with the American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations (AFL-CIO). The organization advocates for its members, who include teachers, administrators, professors, and support staff.

The NEA's primary mission is to promote and protect the interests of public education and its professionals. This involves lobbying for increased funding for public schools, improved working conditions for educators, and policies that support student learning. The union also engages in collective bargaining on behalf of its members to negotiate salaries, benefits, and other employment terms.

In addition to its advocacy and bargaining efforts, the NEA provides professional development resources and support for its members. It also conducts research on educational issues and publishes a variety of materials to inform its members and the public. The organization has a significant influence on education policy at local, state, and national levels. Its membership spans across all 50 states and the District of Columbia.
