The Supreme Court invalidates mandatory agency fees for public employee unions from nonmembers in a 5 to 4 ruling. The decision, led by Justice Alito, says such fees violate the First Amendment and overturns four decades of precedent. Dissenting Justices warn of widespread disruption to labor agreements and union funding.
