i phrased that poorly, i got the article from redit where many of the posters were making poor conclusions based on the headline.

in many places bumping teachers pay 10-15% still wont draw enough applicants IMO to justify it. making incentive based pay bonuses/raises in a district level would im sure be more helpful. the issue are the unions, the district can be short 10 spec ed teachers, and have 40 applicants for the 1 gym teacher job, and the union will never allow them to offer more pay for the spec ed job outside of their rubric.

teaching is a rewarding profession with insane medical benefits and a great pension plan. but a slight bump wont change that.

Is there a point to this law aside from symbolism?

This should come as no surprise to anyone, but lynching is illegal in all 50 states prior to the passage of this law.

It was illegal when it was being done on a weekly basis.
