Agency Fee Instructions

[Ed Norton]

Agency fee is essentially taxation without representation -- I'm surprised nobody has sued over that yet...

Taxation without representation isn't by itself unconstitutional, but if you're forced to pay a fee to support collective bargaining, you should have a vote.

At least with hand-pay, you can keep the money in a savings account accruing nominal interest...

Taxation without representation ? Unconstitutional? I KNOW you're smarter than that. Probably trying to get a laugh at who would bite. And for those that don't know;the Constitution is a leash on the Federal government, and does apply to a corporation; though in these times the line between government and corporation is very blurred.

A dues objector still has to be represented if they have a grievance under the CBA.

Read Beck vs CWA or Machinists vs Whirlpool.

Beck vs CWA has been to the Supreme Court, nothing to sue about, the case has all ready been decided.

Not sure how the next four can be worse than the debacle that Bush gave us for 8 years. By the way, Obama was/is trying to clean up his leftovers after he flew the coop. All the while trying to work with obstructionists in congress. It is a no win situation. No matter what party has the presidency.
