The Michigan Education Special Services Association, or MESSA, is an entity owned and controlled by the Michigan Education Association (MEA), Michigan's largest teachers' union. It presents a huge problem for school budgets, contract negotiations, and community relations when the union fights to keep its plan in place. Education Action Group, a Muskegon-based non-profit, explores the problem and solutions.
Author, Fox News analyst, and former Clinton advisor Dick Morris narrates the project.
I did visit the EAGTruth site as suggested by the post previous to this one. It's obviously an effort of the Michigan Education Association and MESSA to thwart the efforts of the Education Action Group to educate citizens and help them advocate for their interests. Glad to see the EAG has the unions so concerned.

Food for thought:
What good is the expenses of the union itself doing for the good of the Teachers they supposedly help? What is the total cost per teacher per year for the Union's existence?
Look closelty at the Assets and Liabilities sheet shown here beginning at 5:42
Specifically, what are the "other liabilities" totalling $103,930,445 for? The only other liability entry is $1,237,590
The Assets column raises more questions. What are all these "Assets"? Total Assets are $67,582,492.
