Janus v AFSCME

SCOTUS Overrules Abood in Janus v AFSCME

In Janus v AFSCME, 585 U.S. ____ (2018), the U.S. Supreme Court held that public-sector “agency shop” arrangements run afoul of the First Amendment. The sharply-divided Court also overturned its long-standing decision in Abood v. Detroit Board of Education.
