A Bill to preserve and protect the free choice of individual employees to form, join, or assist labor organizations, or to refrain from such activities.

Otherwise known as the National Right to Work Bill is in the House and Senate.

https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-...-bill/785/text
Introduced by Rep. King of Iowa and Rep. How Wilson of SC. 01Feb2017.
Has 22 cosponsors of 219 needed to pass the House.

https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-...enate-bill/545
Introduced by Sen. Rand Paul 10Mar2017.
Has 22 senators of 51 needed to pass the Senate.

Eliminates paragraph Eleventh of Railway Labor Act for mandatory union dues.

It WILL be going to the Presidents desk, hopefully this year.

For those of you who do not believe your union is worth spit (like the APA or ALPA) you can keep ALL OF YOUR MONEY. These unions have been crapping on the junior people, the Regionals, OR selectively giving greater seniority "payola" to their CHOSEN FEW for many years. Its time for change.
