Collective Bargaining Agreements (CBAs)
The Supeme Court heard oral arguments in a case affecting millions of public employees with implications for the future of organized labor. At stake is whether unions can compel nonmembers to pay dues for representing them in contract negotiations.
President Trump has nominated 10th Circuit Court of Appeals Judge Neal Gorsuch to fill the Supreme Court seat left vacant since the February 2016 death of Justice Antonin Scalia. In many ways, Judge Gorsuch's record mirrors that of Justice Scalia.
The nation's public employee unions have "won" a 4-4 tie at the Supreme Court in a case that could have left their future in doubt. The result means that unions may continue to collect dues from employees they represent, so long as the dues are being used for collective bargaining, contract administration or grievance adjustment purposes.
