How is stopping you from stealing money from working families a blow to them? Looks like YOU got the education this time!

The DNC is the one that will be hurting.

The ruling undermines the ability of educators to come together and bargain collectively on behalf of students.

They have never in their history bargained on behalf of students.

[M Kehoe]

“The ruling undermines the ability of educators to come together and bargain collectively on behalf of students.”

That’s a lie. Or the writer was substituting students for unions.

“The ruling undermines the ability of educators to come together and bargain collectively on behalf of students.”

Students don’t need bargainers, they need those who can actually teach them.

[M Kehoe]

Or teachers.

Otherwise the journalist lied.

Has nothing to do with students.

I am, in general, pro-union. But this is supposed to be a free country. EVERY worker should be able to decide for himself whether or not he wants to join a union.

My problem with being forced to pay dues to any union is two fold: 1) once the majority of the workers vote for a union, if you stay with the company, you are tied to whatever they negotiate. What if you want better wages instead of 27 paid holidays? What if you want better dental/vision insurance and will take less pay for it? - If the union which now MUST be the lone negotiating point with the company/public sector doesn't cover your concerns, you are just SOL! 2) Because you are NOT a union member, you don't even have any say in who is elected to negotiate or run the union! You really are completely SOL! It really was designed to still FORCE people to "want" to join the union!

Today's ruling is the ONLY correct decision on so many levels! I really do NOT understand where the other 4 justices are coming from, if they think it is okay to force me to pay for a union of which I don't want to be a member and for negotiating services over which I have NO CONTROL! The worst part of Abood was that it FORCED non-union members to become piggy banks for a union of which there were not a member - ONLY BECAUSE THEY HAD A JOB - effectively making it a closed shop, only by a different name.

Tell it to taxpayers who can’t or have to sell at a loss because said taxpayers can’t afford confiscatory property taxes...

[Safetgiver]

The ruling undermines the ability of educators to come together and bargain collectively on behalf of students. Wha....What. Students don’t get squat.

[bert]

The premise is wrong.

Unions are organizations of political hacks

[cranked]

Err, wrong, John RosalesIdiot!

How do you spell poop?

I consider the NEA to be perhaps THE most destructive organization in America. Anything that damages them is good.

[kanawa]

Guy above me in the SEIU mid-1970s, “Unions are a necessary evil”.

[Rurudyne]

While it wasn’t the clip I was looking for this will at least entertain and is somewhat relevant.

The one I was looking for is the one where Humphreys reveals that the purpose of government departments is to serve those with a vested interest, so the education department serves the needs and wants of the teachers unions. Not the parents or students.

Sorry. Had to stop here.

This ruling is 100% a boost for all families!

Finally an end is in sight for Democrats buying state legislatures.

This is truly a historic day, but until ALL States are Right to Work, unions will still be able to extort money from workers forced to join private sector unions.

The 4 Judges that voted against this decision are communist supporters.

https://nrtwc.org/facts/right-work-mean/

Taft Hartley used to require union leaders to swear that the were not supporters of the communist party.

This provision was overturned in 1965.

[Secret Agent Man]

Okay, so make these non-union folks NOT be protected by the union agreements.

Or set up union dues on a tier system that has money going for just bargaining, or bargaining and political donations.

You know there are easy solutions to this but the union will not do tem because they dont want workers to have more say in how the unions use their dues.
