Michigan Action Alert on Right To Work
Posted on 12/11/2012 2:43:48 PM PST by DJ MacWoW
LANSING, Mich. (AP) - The Michigan Legislature gave final approval Tuesday to a bitterly contested right-to-work plan limiting the power of unions, a devastating and once unthinkable defeat for organized labor in a state considered a cradle of the movement.
Unswayed by Democrats' pleas and thousands of protesters inside and outside the state Capitol, the House approved two final bills, sending them on to Republican Gov. Rick Snyder. One dealt with private sector workers, the other with government employees. Both measures cleared the Senate last week.

Good!
Not only are the union goons unhappy, the Food Stamp President has expressed his sympathy to his union butt buddies.
Unions have long outlived their usefulness, and are partly responsible for destroying a lot of the American manufacturing base. The chickens have come home to roost, and the goons are just going to have to suck it up and get real jobs.
Violence broke out in Lansing today over this ...
I heard the boy king was in Michigan crying.
In order to be a proper Liberal you now need to believe that allowing a worker a choice is a violation of his right of choice.
That violence is acceptable in order to preserve the worker’s right to not be able to choose if he wants to be in a Union.
We are living in Alice in Wonderland-like times.
The bills have been signed.
I saw that. How DARE people want to work without having to pay someone for the right! /s
Yes. Right is wrong, left is right, up is down......
the Tea Party needs the Sons of Liberty—to protect the peaceful Tea Party when attacked. The Media will not publish these attacks by thugs—so most Americans will not even know what happened. We need a sort of guard group—who will not strike first— but will end any fight when it starts. Some ex-seals, Rangers, Bikers etc...

Looking at that bunch, I wonder how many played hookey from work to go protest.
The whole lot of them should be fired.
24-26 states already have this and are seeing growth in their manufacturing sectors.
It’s amazing that anyone is so stupid that they can’t be bothered to look beyond their own back yard and ask, “Does this work in other states?” Even more amazing that you’re such a bigot that you think that violence is the answer to this problem.
It’s about money and power. Campaign money. Political power.
Celebrate. The Conservatives are in control of a hell of a lot more than the press wants you to know about.
This is truly devastating to the democrats. Michigan unions pump nearly a quarter billion dollars into national democrat campaigns every year.
They don’t even look beyond their backyard. They say they have...but then lie about it. I hear it from liberals; they just lie. This is where we are. Yes liberals have been full of untruths and none of us are 100% right all the time but these people have decided that facts mean nothing. Facts mean nothing, just make it up. LIE LIE LIE LIE.
Free at last. Free at last. Thank God almighty, you’re free at last.
Next up, MT, KY and MO!
