This was not a “big” victory, only a judgment deferred to a later date.

There are literally TONS of questions that have never been satisfactorily resolved by the judgment of the Supreme Court, and even then, no judgment can ever be considered to be “settled law”. New interpretations arise all the time.

Case in point - the Dred Scott decision of March 6, 1857.

That was revisited rather quickly, as a massive civil war broke out related in no small part to that interpretation of the rights (or lack of them) as applied to persons held in slavery.

It seems to me the congress should pass a law saying you don't have to join a union ANYWHERE. If I live in a "right to work" state, why should someone else be forced to support things they don't believe in.

When I became a Christian, I knew unions gave only to Dems, that supported abortion, sodomy, ditching the Second Amendment, burning flags, forbidding prayer in school, removing the Ten Commandments, removing In God We Trust, and on and on. Why would I give money to an organization so opposed to my beliefs? Why should anyone be forced to deny their beliefs?
