Minnesota Homecare Providers Appeal Federal Challenge to SEIU Forced Unionization Scheme

SEIU seeks to push home-based personal care providers into forced-dues ranks against their will

With free legal aid from National Right to Work Foundation staff attorneys, Teri Bierman and eight other providers from around the state appealed the U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota judge’s ruling denying the providers’ request for a court injunction that would immediately halt implementation of the law.
