Stand for Children gets some more butt whuppin’ in Chicago.

Stand for Children Illinois went online and cried buckets of tears over the fact that Chicagoans went toSignon.org to urge Change.org to drop the union busting petition appearing on a self-described progressive website.
Change.org at first refused to drop Stand for Children as a client.
But the petition initiated by CTU member and history teacher Jennifer Johnson soon went Chicago-viral. And when it hit 4,000 signatures, Change.org cried uncle and removed Stand for Children from their site.
But read the comments on the Stand for Children Illinois site.
Chicagoans are still kicking’ butt.
