\nThe National Right to Work Foundation’s letters<\/a> calling for an investigation of the SEIU union’s apparently illegal scheme to coerce "donations" for its Political Action Committee (PAC) prompted this<\/a> excellent editorial in the Wall Street Journal.\n<\/p>\n

\nNow that editorial has caused a local union official to blow the whistle in this letter to the editor<\/a>. Aside from cheering the Foundation’s efforts, her letter alludes to another problematic aspect of the SEIU union’s dirty political fundraising scheme.\n<\/p>\n

\nMarlene Jones, a registered nurse who is also the head of her Pennsylvania-based SEIU local, writes the following:\n<\/p>\n

\n

\n\tI have been a member of the Service Employees International Union (1199P) for 27 years. I am the president of a local nurses union in Pennsylvania. Every day I experience the pressure for our local nurses union to have all of our members contribute to the Political Action Committee fund. SEIU even goes as far as telling its locals that if a percentage of its members contribute, they will receive 1% of their high union dues back to the locals. <\/b>\n\t<\/p>\n

\n\t<\/b>[emphasis added]\n\t<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\nSo on top of the SEIU constitutional amendment penalizing SEIU locals by seizing dues money when they don’t hit PAC fundraising goals, Ms. Jones says top SEIU bosses are promising conditional kickbacks of certain union dues seized from workers and sent to the International affiliate. But those kickbacks apparently do not occur if the local union fails to meet the SEIU’s PAC fundraising mandates. This could be yet another<\/a> way SEIU bosses are in violating federal law by securing PAC "contributions" with the threat of financial reprisals.\n<\/p>\n

\nNurse Jones ends her letter with the following plea:\n<\/p>\n

\n

\n\tWhen will it end? Good luck with the investigation. Our members do not want to contribute to the PAC fund.\n\t<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
