decertified in latest blow to labor under Walker
law

According to Reuters,
elections in 2011 and 2012 -- in which 207 school districts, 39 municipal and
six state units participated -- resulted in 32 unions and their affiliates, or
about 13 percent, being decertified.
"It seems like the
majority of our affiliates in the state aren't seeking re-certification, so I
don't think the KEA is an outlier or unique in this," Brey told the paper,
adding that certification gives the union scant power over a limited number of
issues they'd like a voice in.
“The public at large — and
an increasing number of union members — have become wise to the fact labor
unions stifle innovation and burden governments and businesses with
unsustainable costs and regulations."
