In a surprising twist, it seems that soon after replacing Emma Leheny as the top person in the legal division of CTA (California Teachers Association), Priscilla Winslow is herself leaving CTA to become a member of the Public Employee Relations Board. Unless, that is, PERB is going to give up all pretense of being independent of CTA, and is planning to have a CTA lawyer actually make decisions for PERB.
There is actually no evidence that Emma Leheny left CTA, only that she left the position of head counsel.
Eric Banks has also been appointed to the PERB board.GOVERNOR BROWN ANNOUNCES APPOINTMENTS
