Debate will last for 72 hours, ending at 8PM EST on Friday, May 8th.

I have 36 hours to advocate for my bill.

This bill is only a further extension of a citizen's God given right to freedom of association. If someone wants to be in a union, that's great for them. If someone doesn't want to, they shouldn't be forced to. To require hard working Northeasterners to pay a portion of their pay checks to an organization they have no desire to be a part of is just crazy. Passing this bill will end the practice of repressing people's rights and over-inflating the minds of egos.

[DKrol]

So let's take it to court and make the case for the rights of the worker over the rights of the union. I don't see the base for the argument that Right to Work hurts workers - It advances their personal liberties and rights of association.

Time for debate has ended. We will now move to a 48 hour vote.

Aye

With 1 Aye, 1 Abstention, and 3 Nays the bill fails.
