Indiana right-to-work law to get final push this weekBy Susan Guyett | Reuters – 1 hr 14 mins ago


INDIANAPOLIS (Reuters) - Republicans lawmakers were expected to give a final push this week to legislation that would make Indiana the first right-to-work state in the nation's manufacturing belt, dealing a setback to organized labor in a presidential election year.

The measure, already given preliminary approval by both chambers of the Indiana legislature, would allow workers to opt out of paying union dues, even when a workplace is unionized.

Supporters of right-to-work, led by Indiana's Republican Governor Mitch Daniels, say it is needed to bring business and jobs to the state. Opponents call it "union busting" and say it will hurt workers with lower wages.




....i probably should have started a new thread, but i tend to try to keep stuff within a related one, much like in a normal conversation.

i agree wholeheartedly with this move;it is odd to me that one would ever be required, in this country of all the countries in the world, to join an organization whether one wishes to or not. especially considering it deals with employment.
of course unions would disagree.

Right to work, right to hire, right to fire, right to compete for a job, right to employ the best candidates, etc. etc. etc.
The thought that these laws need to be new is just fascinating.
