The opening session of Michigan House of Representatives began with the introduction of House Bill 4054 (HB4054), a bill that would create Right-to-Work zones. The bill was introduced by Representatives Knollenberg, Jacobsen, MacMaster, McMillin, Lund, Genetski and LaFontaine and was referred to the Committee on Commerce.
Right-to-Work is simply not good public policy. Its divisive nature is harmful to business, to workers and to the states recovery. It is simply a lose-lose proposition.
Contact the state legislature today and ask our elected officials to support jobs, not bills that are harmful to our economic recovery. Vote NO on HB 4054.
