In the article, Professor Cunningham-Parmeter says a technical read
of the state law might support TriMet's position that it is prohibited
from paying employees to attend union orientation. But case law around
the National Labor Relations Act, upon which state laws for public
employee unions (are) based, (has) found that paying employees for their
time to attend union functions is generally allowed.
"This is not a novel issue at all," Cunningham-Parmeter said. "It's settled law that assisting a union in these ways is perfectly permissible."
