Earlier in the day, UAW member Terry Bowman testified before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee that he was tired of UAW bosses using his dues for politics he opposes. Michigan is not a Right to Work state and thousands of workers in the state are forced to pay UAW fees against their will.
Bowman testified that the simplest way to fix the system would be to pass a National Right to Work Act that would allow all union members more influence over their unions. With the ability to leave a union, members have the power to force unions officials to listen. Without Right to Work, there is no Voluntary Unionism and only Compulsory Unionism that results in union kingpins rather than responsive officials.
Below is UAW member Bowman’s appearance on Neil Cavuto’s show:
Just say no to government union bargaining in Virginia In our Republic, all citizens have a right to petition their elected officials for redress of grievances, but no one should have special access to decisions over spending public funds, which monopoly bargaining grants union officials.
Vehicle exporting is one of the most prominent industries for the US economy, and the majority of top vehicle-export states are Right to Work.
Companies investing in Right to Work Tennessee include Advanced Correctional Healthcare, Company Distilling, Memphis Contract Packaging, and LG Electronics.
