Unions fear they can't stop right-to-work

Top officials in the public-sector labor movement say it is only a matter of time before right-to-work-type rules are applied their unions, according to the former head of the Vermont branch of the American Federation of Teachers.

The officials fear that it is inevitable that the Supreme Court will end the unions’ power to force workers to pay them fees for representing them in collective bargaining. Nor do the officials know how to respond to the coming change.
