Yes, and I am NO fan of unions, but I do not believe a law that requires them to represent people who have not paid for said representation is patently unfair. I don’t know about whether it’s constitutional, however.
Just so I'm clear; if I'm a teacher and can choose NOT to join the union, are you saying I should be made to pay union dues just because the union is still representing all teachers as a whole when it comes to negotiating wages?
I agree that it is unfair if non-members are being represented without paying fees, but my understanding is that the union can negotiate the collection of fees from non-union members to pay for their collective bargaining expenses.
