The Buckeye Institute Takes School Guidance Counselor Case to Ohio Supreme Court

The Buckeye Institute filed its appeal brief with the Ohio Supreme Court in Kolkowski v. Ashtabula Area Teachers Association, urging the court to hear the case and recognize that a union—which Barbara Kolkowski is not a member of—cannot force her to accept union legal representation to arbitrate her workplace grievance. “Today, the Ohio Supreme Court has an opportunity to vindicate Ms. Kolkowski’s right to have her own legal counsel.”
