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.
