“Wonder what they’ll cut first. Pension payments?“

Not here in IL short of a Chapter 9 Bankruptcy filing. It’s right there in our State Constitution.

in light of... Janus v. American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees. Janus found that coerced dues from nonunion public-sector workers were unconstitutional.
Illegally forcing non-unionized workers into a union, solely for the benefit to the union, which then kicked back campaign contributions, is a Demagogic Party SOP. Thanks GonzoII.

I proudly agree with Democrat POTUS FDR on one issue, Public Service Unions should not be allowed to exist.

I want to see the people forced into unionization suing, like the caregivers illegally “Unionized” per a sham vote and then had part of their Medicaid payments garnished for union dues.

That ruling may have been specific only to public sector unions, but it doesn’t mean the same legal reasoning wouldn’t apply to non-public sector unions. The court probably just needs to get another case in front of it with a different situation in order to extend the ruling.

Actually, it would. Public and private unions are in a different situation - one of them bargains with the employer who pays the bills, the other bargains with overpaid lawyers who are probably in their own union, and the payer (taxpayers) aren't represented against the union. A private employer has the power to choose to make union membership a condition of employment. The public sector doesn't have that power.
