Great News! IMHO This is Mafia Style Thuggery and Theft! Forcing family member home health care givers to join a union is UnAmerican and ought to be illegal! The union should have to refund them their money with interest! Why would medicare or medicaid be subjected to any payment being taken out of it as well? What is up with that?
Excerpts:
More than 44,000 home-based healthcare workers parted ways with SEIU Healthcare Michigan after learning they did not have to join the union or pay dues, according to reports the union filed with the U.S. Department of Labor. Thousands of the employees were allegedly forced into the union under a plan the SEIU successfully lobbied for that classified even unpaid family members caring for their elderly parents as "home health care workers." Dues were then automatically collected from the care recipients' Medicare or Medicaid checks.
