Lawsuit seeks to undermine CA teachers' unions.
Lawsuit seeks to undermine CA teachers' unions.LAT: "In the suit, four teachers ... assert that union rules and state laws violate their 1st Amendment rights to free speech because they cannot belong to the union unless they allow a portion of their dues to be spent on political activity ... Union leaders characterized the legal action as an attempt to limit what labor can accomplish against well-funded business interests and other opponents by cutting off funding."
