Pattern Makers League of North America v NLRB, 473 US 95 (1985) is a US labor law case, concerning the right to organize.

The court addressed whether a labor union's rule that prohibited members from resigning during or before strikes violated the employee's rights under the National Labor Relations Act of 1935 (NLRA).

[1][2] The Pattern Makers League's constitution said resignations from the union were not permitted during a strike.

Justice Powell wrote the majority, a 5 to 4 opinion, holding that fines could not be enforced against non-union members.
