Link to story:
From the article:
“PSEA
continues to work with their locals to negotiate fair share fee provisions into
their collective bargaining arrangements that are being negotiated and signed
after Janus,” the Fairness Center lawyer said. “It’s illegal language that’s being negotiated into these
contracts. For the most part, PSEA controls negotiations for the locals
on their behalf. They are largely dictating what goes into these collective
bargaining agreements.”
How this article relates to the Lodi Education Association:
Long after the Janus decision, the Lodi Education Association and its reps from the NJEA were/are demanding that ILLEGAL, pre-Janus language still be included in new employee contracts. Board attorneys acknowledge that the language is illegal but keep it in the contracts because the NJEA whines and whines and whines.
I made the same argument in 2018 with the Lodi BOE that
is being argued in article linked above. Illegal language should have no place in any new
employee contracts.
