Michigan legislators and our Governor, Snydly Whiplash are voting this week

to prohibit school districts from collecting union dues from paychecks. Not the end of the world, but certainly only meant for union busting. I'm sure it will pass. They aren't even pretending it is anything else, however our schools can still deduct things like United way contributions etc. It is only the requested Union contributions they are prohibiting.

Do other states prohibit this?
