New CT Law gives Unions more Access to new employees

 Over the weekend, Gov. Ned Lamont signed a bill into law that will allow government unions to have more access to new and current employees and enshrine union dues authorizations into state law.

Senate Bill 908 was fashioned as a response to the United States Supreme Court’s 2018 ruling in Janus v. AFSCME that said government unions could no longer require public employees to pay a fee to a union as a condition of employment under their Freedom of Speech rights.
