U.S. House Votes on Bill Forcing Non-Union Members to Pay Union Dues! NATIONAL RIGHT TO WORK DROPS HAMMER ON U.S. HOUSE... RIGHT TO WORK EXPERT: Mark Mix, is President of the National Right to Work Committee which is a 2.8 million member public policy organization. He also serves as President of the National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation. This week, National Right To Work Committee President Mark Mix blasted Nancy Pelosi and the rest of Big Labor's allies in Congress for passing H.R. 2474, the so-called “PRO Act,” which would wipe out all 27 state Right to Work laws, let Big Labor organize unions without a secret ballot vote, and impose a laundry list of other union boss power grabs. Mr. Mix stated, “This was a vote to let the union bosses put their hands back in workers' pockets. Every member of Congress who voted for this abomination should be ashamed of themselves.” “80% of Americans agree it is just plain wrong to force workers to pay union dues or ‘fees’ just to get or keep a job. But these politicians shamelessly kowtowed to the demands of the union bosses who fund their campaigns with forced-dues dollars,” Mr. Mix continued. “Right to work supporters will remember and will hold Big Labor's puppet politicians accountable.” Right to work laws have been part of the economic landscape for more than seventy years. In 1935, Congress gave Big Labor the power to force employees to accept their so-called “exclusive representation,” where it is against the law for the workers to represent themselves. Then, compounding the injury to independent-minded workers, they allowed union bosses to demand that workers pay for that “representation” they don't want, didn't ask for, and which may even be working against their interests. In 1947, Congress allowed states to pass Right to Work laws, partially righting this wrong within their own borders. Mr. Mix pointed out that “state Right to Work laws have brought tremendous economic benefits to the states that adopted them.” According to studies cited by Mr. Mix, job growth in Right to Work states has been double that of the forced-unionism states, the average family in a Right to Work state has $4,500 more to spend in after-tax real income, and forced-unionism states have nearly triple the number of welfare recipients per capita.
