"The National Education Association believes that federal and state mandates regarding school programs should be specific, tightly-focused requirements, must be funded so as to encourage maximum efficiency, and must be based on student achievement."
Where's the focus on the dues-paying membership in a position like that? The emphasis is on the needs and requirements of the tax-paying public. If that's what you're interested in you don't have to be paying dues to the union.
