Introduced by Rep. Brian Palmer (R) on May 22, 2007, to authorize the creation of county, city, township, village, or school district “right to work zones,” where compelling an employee or prospective employee to join or financially support a union as a condition of employment would be prohibited within the boundaries of the community. See also House Bill 4757, which would establish that a local government could establish a zone by a vote of the jurisdiction’s governing board, or by a popular initiative.
Referred to the House Labor Committee on May 22, 2007.
1) Now that.... by Anonymous Citizen on May 29, 2007 ....millions of illegal immigrants have nearly been legitimized by this administration, just as they were during the Reagan era, there has to be a way to get them past the unions and into the plants. WIth outsourcing and incremental and specious tactics like the "right to work" movement, corporations will continue to prove that the word "American" is irrelevant and there's only one thing that really matter$.

2) so, ONLY unions have by Anonymous Citizen on May 27, 2007 benefits? or does EVERYBODY have benefits?
if you say EVERYBODY, then UNIONS DIDN'T GET THEM FOR ME, LABOR REFORM LEGISLATION DID.
3) they work for the by Anonymous Citizen on May 27, 2007 top automaker in the country.
it's NOT FORD.
it's NOT GM.
it's NOT CHRYSLER.
thank God they aren't in michigan. we'd have taxed and regulated them out of business by now.
the unions WERE a necessity at the turn of the century, but you must now use a 'we will protect all we have stolen for you' attitude to even retain membership.
maybe if MORE of the union dues went to PAY AND BENEFITS and LESS of the union dues went to ELECTING DEMOCRATS, the union membership would GO UP.
how many benefits could i buy myself if i KEPT all that money instead of giving it to you?
