7th Circuit upholds Gov. Walker's much-protested collective bargaining legislation.
"The district court invalidated Act 10's recertification and payroll deduction provisions, but upheld the statute's limitation on collective bargaining. We now uphold Act 10 in its entirety."
Voting to uphold the law in its entirety were Judges Joel M. Flaum and William J. ****. Flaum wrote the opinion.
Judge David F. Hamilton dissented in part, saying he believed part of the collective bargaining law violated the First Amendment. Hamilton argued the state could not bar some unions from having their dues deducted from paychecks while it allowed police and fire unions to do so.
