Neuman chose to leave the union because he believed his dues were supporting an organization that opposed his principles, particularly on U.S. military involvement in the Middle East. He also said he believes the union protects ineffective teachers, something he found the military never tolerated. Despite issues with the union, Neuman says he is happy working at Brighton High School and has no issue with others who might support the local union. “The staff here is great,” he said. “I have no problems with unions. If others feel that they work in their best interests, then people should be a part of it. For me it’s a personal choice.” “Liberty is a simple word to say. I prefer to live it.”
