It’s amazing how far the Democratic Party machine’s tentacles reach. Florida, which is a right to work state, has union dues automatically taken out of state employees paychecks. That is an additional cost to the taxpayers to ensure that the socialist thugs get their racketeering money. Now, the Republican legislature is putting an end to this corrupt practice and all hell is breaking loose.
"This bill aims to do nothing more than silencing dissent," said Florida Education Association President Andy Ford. "The lawmakers who voted for this bill have signaled their desire to use the power of government to single out and attack the hardworking men and women who serve Florida in public employment."
The Orlando Sentinel breaks down how much money the Democratic Party made in the last general election from this money laundering scheme:
During the last general election cycle, the statewide teachers' union gave more than $3.4 million in campaign contributions, mostly to Democrats. The American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees doled out nearly $1.4 million, much of it directly to the state Democratic Party. And the AFL-CIO and other labor groups gave hundreds of thousands of dollars more.
If the unions want to collect dues from public employees, they can do it themselves. Why should the citizens of Florida, who are ideologically opposed to these Marxist bastards, become their paymasters? Enough is enough.
