Michigan Health Department Sued Over Home Caregiver Unionization
Original: State Health Dept. Sued Over Forced Unionizing of Michigan Home Caregivers
A lawsuit has been filed against Michigan's state health department over its role in forcing home care workers to unionize. The case was highlighted by the Mackinac Center, a free-market think tank that has long opposed mandatory union dues for in-home caregivers. The dispute touches on broader debates over whether family and independent caregivers can be counted as state employees for union purposes.
Why now: A new lawsuit against the state health department renews a long-running controversy over forced unionization of home caregivers in Michigan.
