A retired United States Marine who now teaches a Massachusetts public school ROTC program is under fire from the Teacher’s Union for not giving in to their demands of paying unnecessary “agency fees”. The Union demands Maj. Stephen Godin pay $500 immediately or face termination on June 15th. The former Marine already receives insurance and benefits from the military, and does not have a need for the Union. “It’s really nothing,” Godin said of the amount. “It’s the principal of the matter. I think they’re trying to extort money from me. They do nothing for me.” Godin has filed for arbitration five times, without hearing a word from the Teacher’s Union.
