Nonsense - her ruling flies in the face of established precedent in the courts finding that right to work laws (where union membership is not a requirement) are perfectly constitutional.

West Virginia court precedents, or Federal/Supreme Court precedents?

Because she based her decision on her interpretation of West Virginia's constitution, so federal court decisions regarding the U.S. Constitution are not controlling even if the issues seem identical.

This is purely a matter of West Virginia law. She's still wrong as hell, but that ultimately has to be decided by the WV Supreme Court.

No she didn’t - she pulled a Roberts and claimed that forced union dues were like a tax, therefore legal, therefore unions established in conpanies could demand recompense.

On top of that she ordered the law blocked and dragged her heels through 2 elections to get a more favorable electoral climate to give her ruling.

There’s NOTHING in the Virginia law OR constitution that supports her arguments or her actions.

She’s a disgrace to those robes.
