Union members allowed to allocate union dues to local, state, or national organization of their choice.

HF 2240 allows union members in Minnesota (both public and private sector) to direct a portion or all of their union dues to a local, state, or national organization of their choice, rather than solely to their union. The bill requires unions to inform members about this allocation option and mandates that dues deduction authorizations clearly include this choice. Employers must process payroll deductions as requested and remit funds within 30 days, with unions liable for errors in processing. This changes how dues are distributed but does not alter membership requirements or collective bargaining agreements.
