Do Public Workers Know They Can Opt Out of Unions?
Published 2 weeks, 3 days ago
Description
Elizabeth New (Hovde) of the Washington Policy Center argues that many public employees in Washington State don't know the 2018 Janus v. AFSCME Supreme Court ruling made union membership entirely voluntary — and that dues of $1,000 or more per year are being deducted without full informed consent. WPC has created a one-page resource to close that awareness gap. https://www.clarkcountytoday.com/opinion/opinion-new-resource-can-help-public-employees-understand-their-rights/ #Opinion #WorkerRights #PublicEmployees #JanusVAFSCME #WashingtonState #ClarkCounty #UnionDues #FirstAmendment #WashingtonPolicyCenter #LaborRights
