TOPEKA -- Here is how Kansas City-area House members voted on a bill that would bar public employee unions from using automated deductions for political activities. Final vote Thursday morning was 68-56 for passage.

Opponents of the bill said it was tantamount to union busting and trampling on the free speech of teachers and other public employees. Supporters said it was designed to protect public employees from being pressured into giving money to political activities they oppose.
