Freedom Foundation CEO Says New York Is Trying to Silence His Group

Freedom Foundation CEO Aaron Withe says a New York law is designed to prevent his organization from communicating with public employees about leaving their unions and stopping union-dues payments. Withe argues the law is an attempt to "silence" the Freedom Foundation following its efforts to contact government workers about their union rights. He says the organization has helped more than 300,000 public employees leave their unions since a 2018 U.S. Supreme Court decision.
