They were asking for it. From the Axios report:

The 17 state associations that have cut ties with NSBA collectively paid $1.1 million in annual dues to the organization in 2019, according to NSBA records submitted at a recent Florida School Boards Association meeting.

Keep it up, liberal education groups and teachers unions — you’re doing great.

Seems like not calling parents domestic terrorists would’ve been a pretty good way to avoid this dilemma.
