What Annie Wrought in Union Fees and Rights
In March 1983 Annie Lee Hudson and three Chicago teachers challenged compulsory union fees. The 1986 Ferris State College ruling, citing Hudson, found 81 percent of dues used for permissible purposes there, but only 3.4 percent and 2.75 percent for MEA and NEA, prompting rebates and broader limits on nonunion charges. The decision signals unions must audit expenditures and prove permissible use.

Sanctions debate misreads Africa’s realities and risks
Opinion: The sanctions push against South Africa ignores strategic realities and will harm allied frontline states. The United States lacks resources to aid the region and risk from backing sanctions could strengthen the USSR. Constructive engagement under Reagan is the wiser path for Africa’s future.
