When democrats run the place 3: Queen Corruption (Gregoire) admits democrats lied in their WA state worker union contracts.

Gregoire and her entire, "raise the Governor's Office Budget 36% in one Session" administration is rotten and corrupt, clear through. As yet ANOTHER example of how they screw the people, Queen Corruption ADMITTED that state workers got screwed in their union contracts.

You've GOT to love it.

Gov. Christine Gregoire said Friday there was not full disclosure of the closed-shop requirements in the current Washington state worker union contracts.

"There wasn't full disclosure about how much union dues will be,"
Gregoire said in Seattle, addressing the Association of Capitol Reporters and Editors.

Many state workers complained they didn't know they would be required to pay dues when they voted to approve the contracts.

Gregoire was responding to a question about the role of unions in state politics from a reporter from California, where an initiative would require unions to check annual approval from its members before sending their money to a political action committee.

She said union power has not diminished since a similar initiative passed in Washington in the 1990s, but the dispute over requiring union dues remains a sore spot.

"How this will fall out and in what fashion, I don't know," she said. "I think it's too early to tell."

Gee. What a surprise.
