Indianas RTW Law Declared Unconstitutional!

INDIANAPOLIS -
A Lake County judge has determined Indiana's right-to-work law violates a provision in the state constitution barring the delivery of services "without just compensation."

Lake Superior Court Judge John Sedia found that the law wrongly requires unions to represent workers who do not pay dues. Indiana became the 23rd state in the nation to ban the collection of mandatory fees for representation from unions.

Since then, union lawyers have gone to the courts to try and overturn the law. Sedia issued an order last Thursday declaring the ban on collections and associated criminal penalties unconstitutional.

Union spokesman Ed Maher calls the ruling a victory for the middle class and dues-paying union members.

"This is a victory for the middle class," said Local 150 president-business manager James M. Sweeney. "These laws are nothing but thinly-veiled tools to weaken unions, and this is a big win for workers who rely on unions to provide decent wages and benefits. We pledged on the day that this law was passed that they hadn't seen the last of us, and we are delighted with this ruling."

A spokesman for Attorney General Greg Zoeller says the state will appeal the ruling directly to Indiana's Supreme Court.

. . . And these sweat shop "new businesses" that have been cropping up had better dig deep in order to pay off the state courts or they'll have to actually pay people more than 10 bucks an hour!

Why would I care what a bunch of blathering sheep think? Every one of them has not had to look for a job in the last 10 years, and when they do, (and they will), they'll be squalling like a scalded cat over having to work manual labor for 10 bucks an hour and being forced to spend 40% of those meager wages on healthcare premiums that do not cover their spouse.

That deal with the healthcare isn't going to matter and that's why unions are now talking against the HCB.   Read the comments PH you may learn something.

So you learned something...that there is no shortage of ignorance in the world!
Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

So you think it's ignorant to not want to belong to a union?
