The Right-to-Work law, which allowed workers to opt out of paying union dues, no longer governs Michigan workplaces, as the decade-long regulation was repealed last year by the Democratic majority in the Legislature.
Repeal of Michigan's Right-to-Work laws was opposed by the state's two largest business chambers and other advocacy groups, who contend that the repeal undermines the state's competitive position and diminishes its ability to vie for new companies and employment opportunities.
The frequent change in policy between administrations further hamper Michigan's pro-business climate. Repealing past policies erodes businesses' expectations of stability and makes Michigan less appealing for companies considering investment. The ongoing discontinuity in business regulations remains an obstacle for Michigan, impacting companies' decisions on whether to stay or relocate to another state.
Workers should not be forced to either pay union dues or be fired. They should have the right to choose what's best for them and their family, while still earning a living. Instead of allowing that choice, Union bosses and Democrats have decided that they no longer get a choice. They must pay or get fired.
Representative Matt Hall opposes repealing Right to Work because it will harm our state's workforce in the future, and it takes away employees' ability to choose not to pay into a union. Matt Hall stands with blue collar workers, not big Union Bosses.
