"Wisconsin teachers’ unions in full collapse since tangling with Scott Walker"
On the CoachIsRight website, Derrick Hollenbeck includes these numbers in his posted article:
"Among Wisconsin’s fastest declining unions is AFSCME Council 24 which has seen a jaw dropping 88% (5,900 to 690) reduction in its dues paying members. Another union, the WSEU has shrunk from 22,000 members before Act 10 to less than 10,000 as of last December. Wisconsin’s AFSCME Council 40 has lost 35% of its membership (31,730 in 2011 to 20,488 today). Council 48 situated in Milwaukee County had 9,043 members two years ago. Today it has 3,498 dues paying members."
