How Badly Did the Supreme Court Just Damage Public Sector Unions? Take a Look at Michigan.

In a decision likely to weaken organized labor for years—if not decades—to come, the Supreme Court ruled Wednesday that public sector unions could no longer collect fees from workers whom they represent at the bargaining table, but who choose not to sign up as members.
