January 8, 2007


WASHINGTON-Labor unions, money and elections intersect in the U.S. Supreme Court this week in a case testing the ability of states to restrict unions' use of nonmember fees in political activities.

Washington v. Washington Education Association, No. 05-1657; Davenport v. Washington Education Association, No. 05-1589.
