Supreme Court Bars Use Of Union Dues For Politics
The Supreme Court rules in a railroad union shop case that dues collected from workers cannot be spent on political causes against the member's wishes. The 5-4 decision protects members from compelled funding of political activities, with dissenters among Justices Black and Whittaker. The ruling stems from a Georgia appeal involving Southern Railway employees who objected to union membership. The term ends with 11 cases decided and other actions, including barring illegally seized evidence in state courts and maintaining abortion birth control oversight.
