Section 14.3 24 The parties recognize that an employee should have the option of declining to participate as a member in 25 the Association, yet contribute financially to the activities of the Association in representing such 26 employee as a member of the collective bargaining unit. Therefore, as an alternative to, and in lieu of the 27 membership requirements of the previous sections of this Article, an employee who declines membership 28 in the Association may pay to the Association each month a service charge as a contribution towards the 29 administration of this Agreement in an amount not to exceed the regular monthly dues. This service 30 charge shall be collected by the Association in the same manner as monthly dues.

Section 14.2 16 All employees subject to this Agreement who are not members of the Association on the effective date of 17 this Agreement, and all employees subject to this Agreement who are hired at a time subsequent to the 18 effective date of this Agreement, shall, as a condition of employment, become members in good standing 19 of the Association within thirty (30) days of the effective date of this Agreement or within thirty (30) days 20 of the hire date, whichever is applicable.

This does not, however, 19 preclude the Association's right to pursue the matter to conclusion.
