This is a problem at my husband's job at the local courthouse.. his union is massively leftist.. run almost exclusively by hispanic females.. same thing at my federal job if you can believe that..

What’s worse, the union can use their dues for political activism they may not support.
Not necessarily true. A union member can request that his/her dues be reduced by the percentage of the unions take that they spend on politics. The union of course will not tell you this nor will they look with favor on any member who requests that it be done.

Sounds to me like a union needs to get booted where it counts - right in the wallet.

How would a law requiring union membership be constitutional in the first place? I've never understood that.

The case lays out a process where teachers who don’t wish to join the union can become “agency fee-payers” and obtain a refund for the portion of their dues used for politics and lobbying.In other words, if you want to be able to vote in a union election, you must monetarily support the Democrats.
