Members Brame and Hurtgen issued separate dissents, asserting that (a) the NLRA does not compel that Weingarten be extended to the non-union sector; and (b) for a host of reasons, it does not advance the overall objectives of the statute to extend Weingarten to the non-union sector.
Second, whereas the Supreme Court in Weingarten made note of the fact that involvement of the Union representative in the disciplinary interview was consistent with the Union’s duty to represent the entire bargaining unit, such an interest does not exist in the non-union sector.

 village voice > news > Weingarten's War by Wayne Barrett
Weingarten's war, accompanied by Bloomberg's submarining poll numbers and the emergence last week of the mayor's first putative opponent, Brooklyn congressman Anthony Weiner, are the strongest indications that his big-money advantage may not be enough to presumptively re-elect him.
Finally, in Weingarten's role as chair of the Municipal Labor Committee, which incorporates all the city unions, she's enraged that Bloomberg didn't accept the charade concessions she offered to meet his $600 million gap-closing goal.
In her speech, Weingarten could not distinguish between problems with the plan that are legitimate union matters—such as whether the new curriculum forces many teachers "to abandon the successful instructional practices" they've developed—and those that are a management prerogative, like the regional structure she contemptuously derided.
