Abood V. Detroit Board Education Case Study

648 Words3 Pages

I am in favor of the Petitioner in the name of Rebecca Friedrichs who supports the idea of overturning the precedent Abood v. Detroit Board Education where the Supreme Court ruled that public agency shop arrangements are constitutional. Public-sector agency shop arrangements aren’t completely incorrect in regards to the subject of having the right to represent since they do have the “legal duty to represent all workers” (“Supreme Court takes case on ‘fair share’ union fees,” 2015). It explains how they do have the constitutionality behind representation and also behind their practices (Abood v. Detroit Board Education) yet regarding their actions, it doesn’t mean that the ruling in Abood v. Detroit Board Education should’nt be overturned especially considering unions require nonmembers to pay “their fair share of fees” for bargaining costs despite the …show more content…

Sarah asked the respondents how the people in the union are able to provide for these fees when they make an average of $45,000 a year with thought of other expenses in which Julia justified that the fees required barely affect their overall pay. I agree with Julia, yet she missed the fact that having the assurance of a back-up plan in case of any emergency is important to for families so having the choice to pay for the union or their families is a decision that should ultimately lead to family. Both relates to the 1st Amendment in our Constitution due to the subject about the freedom of expression. I agree with both since the union insisting and requiring nonmembers to pay for fees or to give consent is a violation of their 1st Amendment rights. Why should a nonmember pay or have a choice to pay for the fees when they are not even members of the union in the first place? In my opinion, nonmembers shouldn’t be involved since their willingness and membership isn’t even certain so their money shouldn’t be

California Teachers Association, Rebecca Friedrichs and other teachers argued that forcing them to pay fees for the union’s collective bargaining costs amounts to compelled speech in violation of their First Amendment rights. In this case, the U.S. Supreme Court denied the petition from nine California public school teachers to rehear their First Amendment challenge to mandatory union fees. Due to Justice Scalia’s death, the case was decided 4-4. The suit claims state “agency shop” laws, which require public employees to pay union dues as a condition of employment, violate well-settled principles of freedom of speech and association.

    Brown vs. Board of Education (1954) declared that separate public schools for African American and White children is unconstitutional. This ruling paved the way for desegregation and was a major victory for the civil rights movement. In regards to providing an equal education I believe this ruling did help to level the playing field. All students would now be receiving equal education and facilities giving them equal opportunity. I do know that it didn 't exactly go down peacefully and many African Americans still did not receive fair treatment for many many years but it was a stepping stone to move education in the right direction.
