Labor Relations Radio, E103—Beck Rights and How a Public Defender Fought the UAW and Won
Show Notes

Thirty-five years after the United States Supreme Court ruled in CWA v. Beck, some unions are still violating individuals’ rights under the Beck decision.

In this episode of Labor Relations Radio, Public Defender Brunilda Vargas joins host Peter List to discuss Beck Rights, as well as how, after her office was unionized, she and her colleagues were threatened for refusing to become full dues-paying members of the United Auto Workers.

With help from the National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation, Ms. Vargas and some of her colleagues are now so-called “Beck Objectors.”
