But that wouldn't be the state, unless the state were the employer - and it would only be deducted if the employee filled out a form saying they wanted that amount taken out of their paycheck and distributed to the union. The employer would have no way of knowing what the funds were going to be used for by the union.

The employer can only take funds out of a paycheck if they are legally mandated by law, SS, fica, taxes, etc. But for union dues, the employee would have to produce some document asking the employer to distribute certain funds to the union. I really don't think the union can make such a demand upon a person's earnings.

Yes they can make demands upon your money in Cali. My employer provided me a signature form to authorize money be robbed from my check and given to a union. No siggy no job. I didn't have to join the union but I did have to give them money and my job classification was represented by them. Thank you Gray Davis for that! Thankfully that stint was short lived.
