“should be a law saying that those who do not want their fees going to a candidate don’t have to see their money go there to get them elected”

The Permissible Uses of Forced Union Dues:
From Hanson to Beck
http://www.cato.org/pubs/pas/pa-174.html
On April 13, 1992, in what many consider to be nothing more than an act of political opportunism, President Bush issued Executive Order 12800, which requires all federal contractors to inform their employees of their “Beck rights.” The order stems from a 1988 U.S. Supreme Court opinion, Communications Workers of America v. Beck, in which the Court declared that employees forced to pay union dues under the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) do not have to contribute to a union’s partisan political activities. The Communications Workers of America had been using as much as 79 percent of Harry Beck’s dues for such activities, almost all in support of Democratic party candidates.
ah thank you for that I will be calling the NEA back and informing them of this
