Utah Education Association
The Utah Education Association (UEA) is the largest public education employees' union in the U.S. state of Utah, representing more than 18,000 teachers. It has local affiliates in 41 school districts, Applied Technology Colleges, and the Utah Schools for the Deaf and the Blind in Ogden. It is the state affiliate of the National Education Association.〔(Utah Education Association website )〕
== History ==
UEA was organized in 1860 as “The Deseret School Teachers’ Association,” “for the purpose of establishing a society for promoting the educational interests of the community.”〔(Utah Education Association website )〕 In 1910 it was incorporated as the "Utah Educational Association," and by 1924 had adopted the current name and restricted its membership to professional educators.〔(MICHAEL T. MCCOY McCoy, Michael T. and James B. Eldridge, “The Evolution of the Utah Education Association into Collective Bargaining in Utah,” NEA Bargaining and SERSA Conference, Miami, FL, 2003. )〕
In May 1964, at the climax of a battle with Utah governor George Dewey Clyde, the UEA led a two-day walkout - the first statewide teacher's strike in the nation.〔("Teachers: Showdown in Utah," Time Magazine,Friday, May. 24, 1963 )〕〔(MICHAEL T. MCCOY McCoy and Eldridge, p. 4. ) The claim of 'first statewide teachers' strike' is also made by the Florida statewide teachers' strike of 1968〕
From 1990 to 1996, the president of the UEA was Lily Eskelsen. She is now the president of the NEA.〔("Lily Eskelsen: Teacher Rises to Executive Post at Nat'l Education Association," Hispanic Business, April 7, 2009 )〕
In 2007, UEA, working within a coalition called Utahns for Public Schools, led a successful bid to repeal what would have been the nation's first statewide universal private-school voucher.〔(Washington Post, "Utah Rejects Broad Voucher Program" November 7, 2007 )〕〔(UEA website voucher story )〕〔A discussion of the debate over House Bill 148 can be found in the article on Patrick M. Byrne〕
