AFSCME"},"content":{"rendered":"

In June 2018, National Right to Work Foundation staff attorneys won the landmark Janus v. AFSMCE<\/a><\/em> case at the U.S. Supreme Court. The Janus<\/em> decision established that the First Amendment protects public-sector workers from being forced to pay dues or fees to a union against their wishes.<\/p>\n

Union bosses have widely blocked public employees from exercising their Janus<\/em> rights using a variety of coercive tactics, requiring Foundation staff attorneys to pursue dozens of follow-up cases to enforce Janus<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Recently The Wall Street Journal<\/em> published an article highlighting this ongoing litigation and heavily cited veteran Foundation staff attorney Bill Messenger:<\/p>\n

The opt-out window is a favorite post-Janus<\/em> union tactic for retaining members. More than 40 lawsuits against these \u201cescape period\u201d requirements are pending across the country, according to Bill Messenger, an attorney with the National Right to Work Foundation who argued Mark Janus\u2019s case at the Supreme Court. \u2026<\/p>\n

Mr. Messenger and lawyers at LJC argue that these opt-out window requirements flout the Janus<\/em> ruling, which clarified that a worker must give affirmative consent to become a union member. Before Janus<\/em>, they argue, workers couldn\u2019t give free, knowledgeable consent because they faced an unconstitutional choice between being a member or an agency-fee payer. Unions are violating the free-speech rights of members like Ms. Callaghan, who joined before Janus<\/em>, by forcing them to wait for opt-out windows to leave. \u2026<\/p>\n

More than 80 lawsuits are challenging union efforts to hang on to unwilling members. Often handled by nonprofits like the LJC and NRTW Foundation, these suits fall into four main camps: challenging opt-out window restrictions, seeking compensation for pre-Janus<\/em> agency fees paid by nonmembers, fighting exclusive union representation, and extending Janus<\/em> to the private sector. These cases aren\u2019t litigating the merits of unions; they\u2019re seeking to codify workers\u2019 freedom to choose whether they want to be in one.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
