Knox v. Service Employees International Union, Local 1000 — Breyer, J., Dissenting

Summary

Justice Breyer, dissenting with Justice Kagan, argues that the union’s fee collection system complies with Hudson because it relies on prior-year audited expenses, and he opposes the majority’s opt-in requirement for special assessments due to administrative burdens. Justice Sotomayor, concurring in the judgment, would hold the union failed to provide an opportunity to opt out of political assessments without deciding on an opt-in mandate.
