DC-Area Transdev Driver Takes Case Regarding Union-Instigated Assault to Federal Appeals Court
Biden Labor Board claims ATU union did not violate law even after Transdev worker experienced slap and termination attempt from union officials
Philadelphia Public Defender Brunilda Vargas has filed a federal unfair labor practice charge against the United Autoworkers (UAW) Local 5502 union. The charge states that a union official threatened to reduce her wages and those of her coworkers if they refused to grant the union the power to deduct union dues directly from their paychecks. Vargas is receiving free legal aid from National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation staff attorneys. […]
“It is appalling that a UAW Local 5502 union official would threaten public defenders’ wages for refusing to authorize deductions straight from their paychecks,” stated Mark Mix, President of the National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation. “If anything, UAW officials’ blatant disregard for longstanding federal law demonstrates why these public defenders are right to not want union officials pulling union dues directly out of their paychecks.”
“This case shows why Pennsylvania workers need the protection of a Right to Work law, so every worker can decide for themselves whether or not the union that supposedly represents them deserves their financial support,” added Mix.
