PAG LIN
  1  1    Section 1.  Section 731.5, Code 1997, is amended to read as
  1  2 follows:
  1  3    731.5  DEDUCTING DUES FROM PAY UNLAWFUL.
  1  4    It shall be unlawful for any person, firm, association,
  1  5 labor organization, or corporation to deduct labor
  1  6 organization dues, charges, fees, contributions, fines, or
  1  7 assessments from an employee's earnings, wages, or
  1  8 compensation, unless the employer has first been presented
  1  9 with an individual written order therefor signed by the
  1 10 employee, which written order shall terminate one year from
  1 11 the date the written order is signed and shall be terminable
  1 12 at any time by the employee giving at least thirty days'
  1 13 written notice of such termination to the employer.  
  1 14                           EXPLANATION
  1 15    This bill provides that an individual written order signed
  1 16 by an employee authorizing a deduction from the employee's
  1 17 wages for union dues shall terminate one year from the date
  1 18 the authorization is signed.  The bill does not prohibit the
  1 19 employee from reauthorizing the deduction after the order is
  1 20 terminated.  A violation of the provisions of this section
  1 21 constitutes a serious misdemeanor pursuant to section 731.6.
