Yea, in most states you can't be forced to join a union, and dues are for the maintenance of the union. Only members pay for it.

  A slim majority of 27/50 states. Even in those states, non-union employees can be forced to pay the union "agency fees" for representation costs, but not dues which can be spent on political agenda. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right-to-work_law#:~:text=In%20the%20context%20of%20U.S.,between%20employers%20and%20labor%20unions.&text=Right%2Dto%2Dwork%20laws%20(,Midwestern%2C%20and%20interior%20Western%20states https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right-to-work_law#:~:text=In%2....

    You're confused. 27 states allow paying nothing. 23 states allow agency fees. Federal law prohibits charging non members for political activities.
