Why do “first responders” need an employee union?
I hope they have to pay it all back, with interest and penalties
does this make all states right to work?
How much of that $300 million flowed into the coffers of the rats from Obozo to rat $inators and Governors.
No, it does not. This ruling basically makes government contract workers not subject to paying union dues for supposedly being represented by public sector unions even though they’re not members.
“My wife took care of her mother for two years and had about $30 held back for dues each month. She had no choice and in fact was never even advised she was in the union until she saw her first check. I’ve love to see those commie crooks busted right out of existence.”
Did your wife’s mother have a Long Term Insurance Policy plan which paid your wife for her mother’s care?
The reason I’m asking, a friend of my wife had a sister who took care of her MIL, got paid by the LTC insurance company, and her sister had to pay union dues to these thugs.
Is so, we now know why.
Thanks
Dave
What they did in Michigan was send out ballots and people tossed them in the trash assuming they were junk mail since they weren’t in the union. Then the union counted the ballots of existing members and the handful they got back behind closed doors and determined that everybody wanted to be in the union. Then they quickly destroyed the ballots before the victims knew what hit them.
It's absolutely unconscionable that this was ever permitted anywhere. It simply had to have been a fine-print/add-on/done-in-the-dark sort of law the Left thrives on. No sane person would knowingly vote for something this ludicrous.
um... I thought this had to do with home healthcare workers caring for family members being forced to pay union dues? what does that have to do with government contractors?
how about garnishing all account transfers? seizing all money given to candidates as a preferential transfer.
That could very well be what happened with my wife. She no longer has any records as her mother passed six years ago. I’m sure Washington State has records, though. Wasn’t SEIU started by the same people who started ACORN?
Those parents caring for disabled family members were paid a given amount per month by Medicaid/Medicare and have been referred to as contract workers.
The unions referred to them as healthcare workers so they could collect dues.
“ABOLISH all public service employee unions, except those organized for First Responders!!! “
EXCEPT FIRST RESPONDERS? They should be the first to go. Our Fire District is a disgrace. Fire Board is “packed” with firefighters who live in the district but work outside it. They’ve given their buddies so much money it’s a travesty. A firefighter now makes more than $100,000 per year base salary, and takes home at least another $100,000 in “overtime.” District policy limits the hiring of new personnel just so those already on the pad can bilk the district with their outrageous OT scam. And then theres all the high-end food they eat on the taxpayers (they only shop in the most expensive market in town). So on they go “eating until they are sleepy, then sleeping until they are hungry.” Cops are is second place, and their union needs to go as well.
Picture reminds me of the time I saw a street corner panhandler complete with the milk crate, styrofoam cup and homeless sign made from a pizza box - talking on an iPhone 5. A PINO.. :)
“That could very well be what happened with my wife. She no longer has any records as her mother passed six years ago. Im sure Washington State has records, though. Wasnt SEIU started by the same people who started ACORN?”
Thanks to your reply, Acorn/SEIU probably got some sweet heart deal passed at the state level and maybe by Obozo’s congress.
When my wife asked me about what happened to a sister of one of her friends (last week), I was at a loss. Now I know.
The sad thing in both cases if this deduction came from a Long Term Insurance policy, the people paying for the policy had zero input to these new obscene taxes.
To your other question, basically no difference between SEIU and ACORN. Both are left wing socialist organizations with the top dogs getting rich until one went to jail.
For only one reason.....hazardous working conditions, especially in the ghetto sections of major cities........where they are placed in harm’s by the Obamabot legions of low life thugs and druggies!!!
I too was so please with this SCOTUS ruling!!!
As you may know, Dave, not all insurers reimburse the expense of immediate family member's wages for covered services. Those that do have generally always cost far more premium prior to claim than those that cover non-relative care services only.
But you probably knew that all ready. It's hard to fire immediate family members and sometime they don't do the work they bill for, if you know what I mean.
