Yow. So just to be clear, does a shop have to agree to be a closed shop, or after it's repealed, all union shops you must join?

Part on order, ok to drive
As far as UPS goes it would be a closed shop at whatever date this goes into effect. No more freeloading

Perfect.

My immediate thought (for us) is it will force non dues paying UPS employees to sign up and possibly be more active in voting for or against the upcoming contract.

Do you need an air compressor or tire gauge
It won't do anything because union enrollment is going down even if their forced to join, there are not many union jobs left

So Michigan's House passed their version of the bill. And Michigan's Senate passed a different version of the bill. One had to do with public sector unions if the SCOTUS reverses the public sector RTW section being upheld. Plus each contained an appropriation (one had $75k the other $1M for advertising to make everyone aware of the law to be).
So it's not quite over yet.
The House must go back and pass the Senate's version of the bill. Which means it has to be discussed in the house committee and voted out of committee and onto the floor for a vote, the vote taken.
If passed then the governor has to sign it. Then 90 days pass before it become law. So late June.
If the governor pockets it (unlikely as she's said publicly she'll be signing it) the house and senate have 14 days to override with a super-majority vote.

Friday dumb question day?
If one of my responsibilities is to keep track of who’s manning the line and who’s not, they’ll be marked down as not, and won’t get paid nor receive their insurance benefits, what’s so complicated Wally?

Where is that stipulation in writing?

Talk to your local, that’s already been decided anyone crosses during a strike they do not receive their insurance benefits from teamcare. Every strike line will have captains and there will be a schedule.

I was wondering about the insurance part. No punch equals no insurance...but striking doesn't count? How does that work if UPS pays the contribution to TeamCare not union?

This is the teamster constitution. There might be other local qualifications as well as some locals have their own strike find also.

Teamcare has agreed to cover all striking employees. Should the need arise, and remember there will be no punches and no contributions while on strike from UPS because there won’t be any contract in place.

A court challenge for sure.
