Employment contingent on joining a union is an assault on liberty, a violation of our unalienable right to associate with those we wish and no others.

The vote to turn Michigan into a right-to-work state will take place today after days of protests in Lansing about the pro-worker legislation that prevents having to pay dues to a union.

I guess the only thing left to do is for the Democrats in the legislature to flee the state to prevent a quorum for voting?

That's SOP now, right?

Born and raised in Michigan. Hope it works out for them. Left there after 40 years of jobless recovery over and over. This is just a small win in a larger battle, the battle to reclaim our place as the industrial powerhouse.

President Obama slammed right-to-work states all over the country, saying legislation on the table in Lansing isn't about economics but about attacking unions.

I find it monumentally hypocritical that "O" is rabidly ANTI freedom of choice in the workplace and just as rabidly PRO freedom of choice in the case of killing the unborn.

“....Police bracing for violence....”

Just like Russia 1917.

Notice when Unions do not get their way, there is risk of violence.

well, someone needs head busting.........

Always interesting to me that the people the unions are stealing the money from, that are also the people who will drop out of the union as soon as the law passes, are the people who protest the RTW laws before they pass.

“No Peace” if Right-To-Work Law Passed; “Demonstrators” Occupy Government Building

http://minx.cc/?post=335591

And here we go.

On Twitter, @stranahan is reporting some harrowing things. Americans For Prosperity had a tent up, which was torn down by union protestors; worse yet, he said there were people inside the tent when they took it down, and the “protesters” were armed with knives.

He says the “protesters” have also occupied the George Romney building, which is the Governor’s main office.

Update: @scrowder (comedian Steve Crowder, who did the Bowie parody, and the “redistribution of Halloween candy” clip) was punched four times in the face during the fracas. See end of update.

Update: They broke his tooth in the beating.

Georgia is a right-to-work state, and we have Unions. The only thing Michigan’s unions are upset about is losing money from non-members.

I suppose next will be efforts to recall the governor and key legislators.

the Wolverine State will become the 24th in the country to enforce the law against union extortion of money from employees.
