Question Presented (from Petition)

This document is an Application for Extension of Time to File Petition for Writ of Certiorari, not a Petition for Writ of Certiorari itself. The "Question(s) Presented" section does not appear in this document.

The document does contain a description of the issues that will be raised in the forthcoming Petition, which states:

"This case raises important federal questions regarding public employees' First Amendment right to decline to subsidize the political speech of public sector labor unions. Specifically, the forthcoming Petition concerns whether the affirmative consent and constitutional waiver standard this Court laid down in its landmark decision in Janus v. Am. Fed'n of State, Cnty., & Mun. Emps., Council 31, 138 S. Ct. 2448, 2486 (2018), applies to former union members who previously consented to deductions, but have since withdrawn their consent, or whether it only applied to agency fee payers under regimes which no longer exist."

However, this is not the formal "Question(s) Presented" section of a petition.

Question not identified.

Question Presented (AI Summary)

Whether the First Amendment requires affirmative consent and constitutional waiver standards established in Janus v. AFSCME apply to former union members who previously consented to dues deductions but have since withdrawn their consent
