SEIU Wisconsin is a business with a major source of revenue: its members.
Even though employees in Wisconsin cannot be forced to join a union or pay dues, many who are represented by a union end up joining and paying dues, fees, special assessments, and fines. The union will want to take a cut of your paycheck and is free to do what it wants with those funds without your approval.
