Wilson Introduces National Right To Work Act to End Forced Union Dues for Workers

Congressman Joe Wilson (R-SC) has introduced the National Right to Work Act (HR 2571) in the U.S. House.

The one-page bill would end Big Labor’s federally authorized power to force workers to pay union dues or fees as a condition of employment. Mark Mix, president of the National Right to Work Committee (NRTWC), issued the following statement praising the introduction of the bill:

“We’re extremely pleased that Congressman Wilson has introduced the National Right to Work Act, intensifying a growing debate about Big Labor’s coercive power to keep American workers in chains. This legislation would enshrine the common-sense principle – already enforced in more than half of U.S. states – that no worker should be compelled to join or pay dues to a union just to get or keep a job.
