Will House Vote to Make Workers Worse Off?
"If Big Labor succeeds in pushing the FLCA through the House, as expected, the Committee will go all out to stop it in the Senate.”
Cold Hard Facts on Right to Work Economic Performance
Writing in D Magazine, Susan Arledge uses the facts to make the case for Right to Work:
The U.S. Bureau of Economic data shows that between 1990 and 2010, right-to-work states experienced much higher median economic performance with:
- Employment growth of 25.9 percent for right-to-work states vs. 7.9 percent for all other states
- Per capita income growth of 117.8 percent vs. 104.3 percent
- Population growth of 29 percent vs. 23.6 percent
- Manufacturing employment growth of 84.0 percent vs.19.4 percent
- Manufacturing wage per worker growth of 108.7 percent vs. 96.1 percent
Thus, on every economic dimension examined above, right-to-work states experienced significantly greater economic performance than non-right-to-work states.
