Court decision flags agency shop at Montana Highway Commission
A U S Supreme Court ruling on state bans of agency shop contracts draws attention to a Montana Highway Commission pact. The commission approved an agency shop for some maintenance workers in 196? amid union objections, while the American Federation of State County and Municipal Employers questioned legality. The 1959 Montana Supreme Court opinion suggested teachers need not join a union, raising questions about applying penalties for nonmembership. Lawyers split on union security for public employees as the commission discussed the clause at its August meeting.
