Mark Levin for President '08!!!!!!!!!!!!
awesome. I'm sure union asskissers like Boxer and Pelosi are very saddened by this news.
Levin and Landmark, unlike Judicial Watch, who has collected $75+ million over the years, actually wins cases.
No union member (or employee of a "union shop") should be required to pay a nickel for any political activities.
O Great One, what would we do without you?
Landmark Legal Foundation is presently engaged in a two front battle – the most ambitious and arguably the most important we’ve ever faced. It is quite literally a battle for America's future.
We’re confronting the nation’s chief obstacle to substantive education reform - the NEA - not only at the national level, but in the states where the union spends millions in tax exempt funds on unreported and hence illegal political activities.
In the coming months we will launch the first wave of complaints against key NEA state affiliates. In addition, the Foundation will undertake a major outreach initiative to regional, national and specialty media and key opinion leaders to garner attention and caste the spectrum of public debate where it belongs – on the actions of a union that has no respect for the law. Landmark’s complaints and public outreach efforts will bring to the state unions the same unremitting and unwelcome scrutiny from governmental agencies and the media that has resulted in a full IRS field audit and Labor Department investigation of the national union.
We are also challenging what may be the most insidious legacy of modern liberalism – judicial activism and the radical judges who use it to advance an extremist social agenda.
America’s courts have become the final bulwark for the advocates of big government who have been defeated time after time at the ballot box at the local, state and federal level. Through an aggressive and multifaceted public education campaign, Landmark’s Judicial Reform Initiative is helping to reshape the public debate and crystallize public sentiment about the mission of America’s courts and the proper limits on their authority.
With the Roberts Nomination to the the Supreme Court currently before the Senate – as well as the ongoing controversy about filibusters in the Senate over nominees to federal district and appeals courts, this has become one of Landmark’s highest priorities.
It is not an overstatement to say that we are at one of the most pivotal junctures in Landmark’s history.

Typical of unions, the "membership" is represented by dictatorial leaders who have no consideration for their "members" desires. Gimme your money and shut up. I know better than you what is good for you!
Awesome. I hope Prop 75 passes. I admire the Landmark Legal lawyers.
Great news! I hope this bankrupts them!
I'm not too clear on how this works. How can a union require a fee from someone who is not a member?
Mark Levin for SCOTUS.
Mark Levin for sainthood.
When are we ever going to get politicians with this kind of chutzpah?
Illegally. It requires complicity within the administration of whoever cuts the checks (I don't know if that is at the State or local level).
Yep, that's how bad it is.
Mark is Jewish (I think) and I don't believe they have saints..............Maybe nominated for MR. Congeniality!........
This is good but it only goes half way. NO union member should HAVE to pay anything for political purposes.
There would be MASS SUICIDES in DU and DNC............Pass the Grape Kool-aid?......
Closed shop rules.
Wow! Lawyers I could maybe respect - even like. Great news!
Ohhhhh - that's gotta hurt!
