PUBLIC-SECTOR UNION UPDATE: ?Prison guards at a Western Maryland correctional facility say a union ?

By Glenn Reynolds

PUBLIC-SECTOR UNION UPDATE: “Prison guards at a Western Maryland correctional facility say a union boss berated and tried to intimidate them after they raised questions at a pre-shift meeting about how their fees are spent and the benefits of belonging to a union.”

UPDATE: Okay, I can’t resist quoting this passage:

?At first, I thought it was some kind of act or Charlie Sheen moment,? said another guard, who asked not to be identified for fear of reprisal. ?We just looked at one another, bewildered. These were legitimate questions. We?re supposed to go to Mr. Berger if we have concerns ? and he called me a Republican.?

Read the whole thing. This doesn’t suggest that the unions feel things are going their way . . . .
