Michigan Workers and Families Have Been Hurt
“If Michiganders can keep the momentum going this year, they may soon have their Right to Work law back.”
Michigan has been in the middle of a depression for a number of years with no end in sight. Much of the responsibility for that fact goes to state labor bosses and their allies in the legislature and governor’s office.
The state is negotiating with the SEIU for new state contracts and as the Detroit News notes, and proposed savings are miniscule, showing that the elected officials are not serious about turning the state around.
But what’s worse, state Senator Jason Allen is proposing a direct $4 million taxpayer handout to the SEIU.
Michigan will never get back on their feet until they give worker’s the ability to say no to the union bosses and their continuing forced unionism demands.
“If Michiganders can keep the momentum going this year, they may soon have their Right to Work law back.”
“The fact is, openly socialist American politicians like U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders [IVt.], U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez [D-N.Y.], and now Zohran Mamdani also turn out to be rabid advocates of corralling workers into unions.
Since Big Labor-backed legislation repealing Right to Work protections for employees went into effect in early 2024, the state has gone from adding jobs to losing them.
