How is this any different than a fucking mafia shakedown?


Nonunion Md. state workers to pay union fees

BALTIMORE (AP) - Maryland's largest state employee union is expecting to see a big increase in funding thanks to a law that allows it to collect fees from nonmembers.

The Maryland chapter of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees will start collecting fees in mid-July and The Baltimore Sun reports that the union could see a $4.7 million gain over the fiscal year.

The fees are allowed under The Fair Share Act, which the state legislature passed in 2009, and will take as much as $389 annually from some of the 12,500 state workers.

Union officials say the extra money will allow them to improve services, but some state workers say they don't have a lot of faith in unions.

The fees will also be collected by smaller unions.

God, why would anyone who works in the country legally want to live in MD? I just don't get stupid laws like that. Someone has their head way up inside the assholes of the unions over there.
