The Very Definition of Corruption

The state is going to pay your union dues for you?  What possible legitimate reason could there be for this?

California union members could receive tax credits to reimburse a portion of their dues payments under a bill awaiting Gov. Gavin Newsom’s signature. Assembly Bill 158, approved by the Legislature in June, doesn’t specify the size of the credits for most dues-payers. The bill instead sets out lawmakers’ intent to provide $400 million worth of the credits starting in 2024. It asks the state Franchise Tax Board to develop proposals for how much money union members might be able to get back — calculated as a percentage of their dues — with a $400 million allocation.

Franklin Roosevelt wasn't right about much, but even he was right about public sector unions--he was strongly against them.
