- Title

Nissen, Bruce; Churchill, Candi
- Abstract
The Janus vs. AFSCME District 31 legal decision forced all U.S. public-sector unions to operate under "right-to-work" conditions: any union fees for those covered by a union contract are now optional. Past experiences of successful public-sector unions operating in right-to-work states should offer lessons to all public-sector unions on how to succeed. This article examines the history and recent success of the United Faculty of Florida, a statewide higher education public-sector union. Critical turning points, crises, and lessons from that history are included.
