If someone does not wish to be a member of the union then really there isn't a valid rational to make them pay the union dues. I'm sorry you can't get everyone to fall in love with your group, but that doesn't mean you can force them to pay for it.
there is something to this approach
the union should cooperate and insist that the benefits, wage, overtime, work release, vacation, telework, sick leave, maternity leave, grievance and arbitration efforts to achieve problem resolution, should be denied to those non-dues paying members
and those non-dues paying members should be allowed to negotiate their own benefits packages themselves. they should similarly be required to resolve all of their disputes without the union's negotiated dispute resolution mechanism
that way, they can enjoy the dues they are not paying without enjoying the benefits the union has negotiated
