That’s about politics.” (President Barack Obama, Remarks At The Building and Construction Trades Department, Washington, DC, 4/30/12)23 States Including Several Key Battleground States Like Arizona, Florida, Iowa, Nevada, North Carolina And Virginia Have Right To Work Laws. (National Right To Work Legal Defense Foundation, Accessed 4/30/12)
In February, Indiana Joined The Ranks Of Right To Work States. “Indiana became the 23rd state to pass anti-union ‘right-to-work’ legislation on Wednesday and the first in the nation’s manufacturing heartland, dealing a blow to organized labor by allowing workers to opt out of paying union dues.” (Susan Guyett, “Indiana Becomes 23rd ‘Right-To-Work’ State,” Reuters, 2/1/12)
