MO Democrats sponsor ‘dangers’ of right to work; yeah, to their fundraising

rtw INdiana Job GrowthWithout forced-dues, Democrats know their Big Labor-filled political slush funds will dry up.  To emphasize the point, Missouri Democrats and Big Labor are teaming up to provide a false narrative about right to work and its individual freedoms. From Susan Redden of the Joplin Globe:

Speakers at a Saturday breakfast sponsored by Southwest Missouri Democrats will outline what they say are the “dangers of right-to-work” legislation being pushed in the Missouri General Assembly.

A number of right to work bills have been introduced this session of the Missouri General Assembly by members of a Republican majority that is veto-proof in both chambers. A measure aimed at making Missouri the nation’s 25th right-to-work state was the subject of heated debate last week before the House Workforce Development and Workplace Safety Committee.

Speakers at the event will be Jim Kabell, of the Teamster’s Union; Archie Robbins, of Allied Industrial Workers; and Stacey Salmon, of Laborers International Union of North America.

Thanks largely to aggressive grass-roots activism by members of the National Right to Work Committee, the number of congressional cosponsors of the forced-dues repeal legislation introduced in the U.S. House and Senate early this year continues to rise. S.525 and H.R.2571, respectively introduced early in the 2019-20 Congress by Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) and Rep. Joe Wilson (R-S.C.), had a combined total of nearly 100 sponsors as this Newsletter went to press in early October. These essentially identical bills would not add a single word to federal labor law. Instead, they would simply repeal the current provisions in the federal code that authorize and promote the termination of employees for refusal to pay dues or fees to an unwanted union.
