Dear Conservatives,
Michigan union bosses' unrelenting warpath to gut, dismantle, and ignore the state's new and popular Right to Work law rages on -- and your National Right to Work Foundation is fighting back.
With free legal aid from Foundation staff attorneys, four more government-sector workers across the state have filed state charges against union officials for stonewalling their attempts to exercise their right to resign from union membership and cut off forced-dues payments.
You see, union bosses claim the workers must wait for a union-designated "window period" before they can exercise their rights.
But the Michigan Right to Work law unequivocally protects workers' right to refrain from union membership at any time.
Foundation staff attorneys have assisted five other government workers and one private-sector employee with similar state and federal charges, in addition to defending the law in the courts from spurious legal assaults.
These tactics are increasingly a standard operating procedure for Big Labor.
Always desperate for forced-dues cash to line their coffers, union bosses set up arbitrary, burdensome, and discriminatory policies like window periods to make independent-minded workers jump through hoops to exercise their rights.
Thanks to the generosity of Right to Work supporters, Foundation attorneys provide free legal aid to workers victimized by these Byzantine rules.
It's especially crucial we are able to enforce the Right to Work law in Michigan, a state long dominated by Big Labor's forced-dues political machine.
Every chance union bosses get to undermine or gut Right to Work protections, they'll take it. We must stay vigilant.
Thank you for making this work possible.
Sincerely,
Mark Mix
