Posted On: Mar 23, 2017
Mar. 23, 2017  | JUSTICE | The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit on Tuesday, March 21, protected the right of Teamsters Local 916 to collect fair share fees and dismissed a challenge brought on by the Right-to-Work Coalition. A 1977 ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court has held for 40 years that unions are entitled to charge a fair share for work performed to represent individuals who choose to become full dues-paying members. “This decision applies well-established law that employees who get all the benefits of union representation should pay their fair share of the costs of the union negotiations and representation…” teamster.org  Related: Ruling will be appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court. usnews.com
