FRANSON STATEMENT ON SUPREME COURT DECISION TO TAKE UP HARRIS V. QUINN

Tuesday, October 1, 2013

ST. PAUL – Rep. Mary Franson (R-Alexandria), a former childcare provider, released the following statement regarding the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to take up Harris v. Quinn.

“With the decision by the U.S. Supreme Court to take up Harris v. Quinn, the injunction for Minnesota's childcare unionization law will remain in effect until the high court rules on the merits of this case. While this legal process moves forward, I will continue to advocate for moms, dads, and childcare providers who know that our precious children deserve better than to be caught in the middle of a power grab by big union bosses. Hardworking parents simply can't afford the higher costs and fewer options unionization would impose on childcare.”
