The Buckeye Institute: U.S. Supreme Court Takes Up Janus v. AFSCME

The United States Supreme Court agreed to hear Janus v. AFSCME, which The Buckeye Institute asked the court to take up in its amicus brief, supporting Mark Janus and the First Amendment. In its brief, Buckeye showed that unions can survive without compelled contributions and, alternatively, that this change will lead unions to better serve their members. “Forcing employees to pay for speech with which they disagree and forcing them to pay fees to a union in order to keep their jobs is unjust and unconstitutional.”
