Workers of Michigan!
Did you vote Republican?
The Republican-run Michigan Legislature just passed right-to-work legislation that will ban closed shops. Without discussion, without committee meetings or public hearings, the Legislature stole from citizens the right to bargain with employers for contracts requiring workers either to join a union or pay a fee equivalent to union dues.
The Legislature screwed most workers, union or not. Union contracts elevate working conditions and wages for everyone who’s not a millionaire.
Did you vote Republican?
You did?
How did it feel to screw yourself?
