"Sounds like it's a one-time expense." "One of act's provisions was that public-sector unions must be annually recertified by a positive vote of at least half their members.

Help me out here, in the article it was stated: "In news that is unlikely to receive wide play in the legacy media, it appears that a number of Wisconsin unions failed to achieve recertification as a result of year-end member votes."

If the union did not re-certify, then did it de-certify? One would assume at that point point the union ceases to represent its members and would have to organize them to once again accept union representation which would not be the same as annual re-certification?

I suspect that those very questions will be before the Courts in Wisconsin, early in the new year.
