The 14th Amendment Equal Protection is not absolute and, in any event, makes no mention of equal protection for labor unions. Indeed, until the 1935 federal Wagner Ac, many labor organizations were routinely regarded by courts as "criminal syndicates" eligible for suppression by injunction. Today, a rational basis for unequal protection should suffice and either the Appellate Court or the SCOTUS will likely so rule on appeal.

I do not doubt that a different Judge may have ruled differently, and in such a way as to hold the law as valid. I'm just saying I understand the legal argument of this Liberal judge who has blocked it.

I attacked the judge, his decision and his rationale and I did not attack you.
