“7-2 slapdown too!”


It was 7-2 on the result, but Alito’s opinion of the court only had 5 votes (the four conservatives plus Kennedy). Alito’s opinion requires that unions must allow members to opt-in whenever they raise dues or have special assessments.

Heh, from what I can see, Alito’s decision grandfathers all present union members in California their present dues rate.

Unless they consent to the raise, they can’t be forced to pay anything more than they do right now.

This ia brutal decision. Means that the higher inflation gets, the worse off the union.
