    Electrician Prevails in Case Against IBEW Local 2100 Bosses Blocking Him From Cutting Off Union Dues

    October 23, 2026 // Brandyn Marion, an electrician at Louisville Gas and Electric Company (LG&E) and Kentucky Utilities Company (KU), has prevailed in his dispute with International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local 2100, after union bosses backed down and settled Marion’s case against them. The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) began investigating when Marion filed an Unfair Labor Practice charge against Local 2100 officials for violating his rights by refusing to provide him with the information he needed to revoke his dues checkoff authorization. Marion’s charge was filed with free legal aid from National Right to Work Foundation staff attorneys.
