Union bosses should look at #RightToWork as an opportunity to reform and improve their unions to deliver better value to members. #WIUnion

Yeah, that’s gonna happen.

Oh, there was much whining.
Wisconsin State Sen. approves #RightToWork as expected and sends it to Assembly. Gallery chanting "shame" as Senate adjourns. #WKOW

When #RightToWork passed in the WI Senate, the voice of the people was effectively stomped on. #SB44 #RightToWorkIsWrong

^^^ You just know he supported Obamacare.
WI republicans will break the state to see Scott Walker run the nation. As long as we appease our campaign donors, right? #RightToWork

#RightToWork has nothing to do with your right to work. It just defunds & destroys unions. @SimonReporter

Passing #RightToWork #WrongForWI: When #1u working ppl lose the right to unite, it means lower wages & fewer benefits for ALL working ppl.

This ongoing #RightToWork attack has thrown our economy out of balance & families in WI & across the nation are the ones paying the price.

#RightToWork = Right to be fired at any time for any reason. Not a hard concept to understand.Yet millions support something that hurts them

If Unions have a product that the customer wants to pay for, then the customer will pay for their services! Why force them?

You answered your own question.
FWIW, I'm a dues-paying Teamsters member. I support right-to-work laws on freedom of association grounds. 1/x

No one should be forced to pay a third party money in order to have a job. 2/2

By union thugs? RT @wnkramer: Sad day for worker safety in WI. WI workers will be injured & killed on the job as a result. #RightToWork
