Good luck challenging it. If you are on a leave of absense you must pay dues in order to vote. Currently, furloughs may vote without having to pay dues. How is that right?
If you don't want to vote, don't pay. If you don't pay monthly while furloughed you're in for a large payment if you get called back after a significant length of time.
I don't think furloughs should be voting at all so this, to me, is at least a step in the right direction.
According to APFA furloughees are not entitled to representation as they are not employed. Now they must pay dues upon recall for services never receiced? How is that right.
How is it right APFA decided in the past you do not have to pay dues to vote while on furlough, but now have changed their minds. How is that right?
