A group of Jewish professors petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court to free them from the representation of a union they view as antisemitic because it maligned Israel as an “apartheid state” and defended the anti-Israel protests at Columbia University, among other actions.
The six professors at the City University of New York, five of whom are observant Jews, contend that they have the right to disassociate from the Professional Staff Congress union, but New York law forces them to accept the union’s representation.
The Fairness Center, along with the National Right to Work Foundation, filed a lawsuit in 2022 on the professors’ behalf.
