Supreme Court OKs agency shop under Taft Hartley ruling
The Supreme Court, in an 8-0 decision with Justice Goldberg not participating, held Taft Hartley does not ban agency shop agreements while Florida’s ban on such contracts is upheld. Indiana case involved United Auto Workers seeking an agency shop with General Motors. Florida case concerned Local 1625 and Food Fair in Miami. The court questioned whether Florida or the NLRB has enforcement authority, inviting views next term. GM must bargain on the issue, though no obligation to accept. The NLRB had previously ruled agency shop legal. GM challenged, arguing nonmembers subsidize members.
