For example, most Schools are in massive violation of OSHA because their air filters aren't up to the job because they can't afford to retrofit buildings to support a clean air system.
The unions are trying to keep their members ALIVE not out of spite, but because some one has to take the hit.

K-12 in the USA is more funded than almost every country on this planet. What are you talking about?

Schools in the US are _not_ underfunded. There's some issues with unequal funding (which I think is a real, large, problems).

This is pure flasehood. The US spends more per child than pretty much all of Europe.
Maybe you meant they're under performing because while not lacking in money they are most certainly lacking in outputs.
I'll happily cite sourced if you want but it's well known and well documented and written about you can corroborate it easily with whatever sources you find reliable.

The government gives you money each month for each child you have, and forces your employer to allow you to work part-time.

This is greatly misinformed. Schools in the US are underfunded and have scarce resources to deal with the healthcare nightmare that is COVID. The unions simply are the medium through which some school organizations had to be convinced of this rather obvious problem.
