Wisconsin's Act 10 law in 2011 gutted public employee unions by prohibiting automatic deductions of union dues from employee paychecks. The other states need to do likewise.

The Wisconsin Education Association Council (WEAC), the state’s largest teachers union, has seen its membership rolls plummet. WEAC boasted approximately 100,000 members before Act 10. In 2016, the union counted 36,000 members, as reported by the MacIver Institute.

Once teacher's union membership falls to 1/3, a strike becomes just an easily-bearable mass resignation to the school district.

West Virginia officially BARS teachers from collective bargaining. Yet that did not stop them from pulling this stunt (with massive amounts of help from organized labor of course).
