Critics of child-care union get favorable ruling

Petoskey News-Review - Critics of child-care union get favorable ruling
"The Michigan Supreme Court ordered a lower court on Thursday to explain why it dismissed a lawsuit challenging the unionization of 40,000 child-care providers who work at home......

The union gets 1.15 percent of the millions in state subsidies paid to providers who watch kids from low-income families....

The Mackinac Center for Public Policy sued on behalf of the women, who say the union is illegal under Michigan law because the child-care providers are independent business owners not public employees."
