Bush Admin. At War With Unions Over Gay Support
http://www.365gay.com/newscon05/11/111505labor.htm

The Justice Department is involved in a court case that could affect the way labor unions support LGBT issues.

The case involves Glen Greenwood, a air-pollution worker for the Ohio EPA. An elder in the Presbyterian Church he objects to his union dues being used by his civil service union in campaigns supporting gay rights and abortion.

Greenwood is not a member of the Ohio Civil Service Employees Association but it bargains for him. His dues are paid through a payroll withholding.
