The Untold Story About How Unions Took over Illinois Government: Who Is Actually Running Illinois Government? It's Not the Administration. It's Not the Department Heads. It's the Public Employee Unions. -Chicago Tribune, November 25, 2019
This book was inspired by a report in the Chicago Tribune in November 25, 2019. The newspaper asked, “Who is actually running Illinois state government? It’s not the administration. It’s not the department heads. It’s the public employee unions.” Well before these comments appeared I had become a victim of the union I belonged to which was the Illinois Federation of Teachers. I spent years trying to find out about the obligations unions have to dues paying members. I learned that the United States Supreme Court held that unions must back their constituents. I was harassed by my employer, a school district in Illinois, and asked the union for help. I was ignored and filed my own First Amendment law suit in federal court in Chicago. A federal judge’s memorandum held that my case was meritorious and should proceed to court. Armed with that decision I again asked the union for legal help, but was refused. I reported the unions disregard for the ruling to the FBI and was told, “This case belongs in federal court.” The agency made it clear to me that the union was in violation of federal statutes. I determined that unions in Illinois are saving money by not filing law suits for members who have had their civil rights infringed by unscrupulous employers. This plot enables unions to pay union employees outrageous salaries and contribute to campaign funds of politicians who favor union control of Illinois government. Explained within chapters in the book are moves unions have made that has allowed them to, over the years, get control of Illinois government. How this control came about is a mystery to citizens. The Untold Story About How Unions Took Over Illinois Government is an attempt to clarify and expose what has to be a silent insurrection.
