(If you are under a Right to Work law you cannot be compelled to pay <i>any</i> dues whatsoever.) </p> <p> For information on the forced-dues objection process, read <a href="/files/nrtw/CWA%20Sample%20Letter.pdf">this letter</a> by Foundation Legal Director Ray LaJeunesse (pdf). The document includes a sample objection letter for CWA employees to send in to the agency fee administrator. </p> http://www.nrtw.org/en/blog/cwa-action-alert#comments action alert compulsory unionism CWA Forced Union Dues Fri, 09 May 2008 12:42:28 -0400 Will Collins 3060 at http://www.nrtw.org
