What Is A Labor-State?
Forced-labor unionists play defense in 9 strongholdsAlthough Minnesota appears to be the first state to take action, according to Steven Greenhouse of the New York Times, others are contemplating similar action:(from laborunionreport at redstate.com)Republican lawmakers in Indiana, Maine, Missouri and seven other states plan to introduce legislation that would bar private-sector unions from forcing workers they represent to pay dues or fees, reducing the flow of funds into union treasuries.* Other states are believed to include: Michigan, Montana, New Hampshire, Oregon, and Wisconsin.What is Right to Work?
Ever since 1947, when Congress passed (over Harry Truman’s veto) the Taft-Hartley Act, which amended to the 1935 National Labor Relations Act, there have been two types of states.
Note: As the NLRA does not cover airline or railroad employees, this does not apply to them.
The first type of state is called a “Non-Right-to-Work” (or forced unionism) state, which allows unions to negotiate contracts with companies that require union dues and/or fees to be paid. If a worker refuses to pay union dues or fees (often referred to as agency fees), or falls behind, the union can demand that the worker be fired from the company. The company, by contract, must comply and fire the worker.
The other type of state is a “Right-to-Work” state that forbids workers from being fired for non-payment of union dues or fees.
From 1935 through 1947, there were no Right-to-Work laws. However, there are now 22 “Right-to-Work” states that give workers the “right to work” without being required to pay union dues and/or fees, and there are 28 “Non-Right-to-Work” states that allow workers to be fired for non-payment of union dues and/or fees.
In a forced-unionism states, it is legal for unions to obtain “union (income) security clauses” in their contracts, like this one:ARTICLE 3 UNION SECURITY AND CHECK-OFFIn Right-to-Work states the above clause would be illegal. There is nothing hidden about it. It really is that simple.
All present employees who are members of the Union on the effective date of this Agreement shall remain members of the Union in good standing as a condition of employment. All present employees who are not members of the Union and all employees who are hired hereafter shall become and remain members in good standing of the Union as a condition of employment on and after the thirty-first (31st) day following the beginning of their employment or on or after the thirty-first (31st) day following the effective date of this Agreement, whichever is later. The failure of any person to become a member of the Union at the prescribed time shall obligate the Employer, upon written notice from the Union of such and, further, that Union membership was available to such person on the same terms and conditions generally available to other members, to forthwith discharge such person. Further the failure of any person to maintain his Union membership in good standing as required herein shall, upon written notice to the Employer by the Union to such effect, obligate the Employer to discharge such person.
