Manufacturing Jobs

Manufacturing jobs are more likely to be created in Right-to-Work States in rural cities and counties.  Land is cheaper and the population is more conservative, productive and grateful.

Labor Unions still exist, but are limited to UAW plants, Public Utilities and Government entities with SEIU contracts, public schools with NEA contracts, public transit, firefighters, police, etc. In Right-to-Work states, workers in these organizations are free to join these unions or not, but they will probably be hounded to join.

Union employees in all States have right to keep their union dues from being contributed to political campaigns. The NEA still spends $30 million on Congressional election campaigns to maintain the status-quo in US education.

Right-to-Work States allow all workers to work without joining a labor union. There are no “closed shops” in right-to work States. Workers can go to work for companies who have labor union contracts, but they are free to choose to join or not.

The 28 states having ‘Right-to-Work’ laws include: Arizona, Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Idaho, Georgia, Indiana, Kansas, Iowa, Kentucky, Michigan, Louisiana, Mississippi, Nebraska, Missouri, Nevada, North Dakota, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Dakota, South Carolina, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia, Texas, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. West Virginia legislation is pending.

Non-Right to Work States do not offer worker choices. If they join a company with a labor union, they are automatically enrolled in that union.

The 22 Non-Right to Work States include Alaska, Washington, Oregon, California, Colorado, New Mexico, Montana, Minnesota, Missouri, Illinois, Maine, Vermont, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Delaware, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Maryland,
