What is the National Right to Work Committee?

The National Right to Work Committee® is a coalition of 2.8 million American citizens united by one belief:

No one should be forced to pay tribute to a union in order to get or keep a job. These citizens agree that Federal labor law should not promote coercive union power, and support the protection and enactment of additional state Right to Work laws until the federal sanction for compulsory uni

onism is eliminated. The National Right to Work Committee, established in 1955, is a nonprofit, nonpartisan, single-purpose citizens' organization dedicated to the principle that all Americans must have the right to join a union if they choose to, but none should ever be forced to affiliate with a union in order to get or keep a job. What is the purpose of the National Right to Work Committee? The National Right to Work Committee combats compulsory unionism through an aggressive program designed to mobilize public opposition to compulsory unionism and, at the same time, enlist public support for Right to Work legislation. Specific objectives of the program include:

Working to secure roll-call votes on and, at the soonest possible time, enact legislation to repeal the federal labor law provisions that authorize the firing of workers who refuse to pay union-boss tribute and prevent the forced unionization of additional public employees and farm workers. Safeguarding Section 14(b) of the Taft-Hartley Act (that section of the national labor law which reaffirms the right of states to have Right to Work laws). Helping state organizations to promote, enact and protect state Right to Work laws. Who are the members of the National Right to Work Committee? The members of the Committee are men and women — in all walks of life, from every corner of America, union members as well as nonunion employees — who, through their voluntary contributions, support the work of the Committee. The Committee is one of the largest public-interest groups in America. It has 2.2 million members and supporters nationwide. Moreover, poll after poll shows that nearly 80% of all Americans sympathize with the objectives of the Committee and oppose forcing workers to affiliate with a union as a job condition. How much does it cost to join the National Right to Work Committee? The members of the National Right to Work Committee contribute whatever they can afford. The average contribution is approximately $59.

Two antisemitic birds of a feather . . .

NEA President Becky Pringle's meeting with far-left NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani tells you everything you need to know about today's teachers union bosses.

For years, the NEA has pushed radical politics while antisemitism has exploded on college campuses and in K-12 schools. Instead of confronting the problem, union bosses keep cozying up to the same activists and politicians fueling it.

The NEA doesn't just tolerate this toxic climate -- it has helped create it. Union bosses have spent years injecting divisive political activism into classrooms, and now they're reaping the results as antisemitism spreads while they look the other way.

Twenty House Republicans just crossed the aisle and joined every single House Democrat to give Big Labor an early Christmas present by passing Josh Hawley’s so-called "Faster Contracts Act."

Don't be fooled by the name. This bill isn't about helping workers negotiate better contracts. It's about taking negotiations away from workers and employers and handing power to government-appointed arbitrators.

This bill turns contract negotiations into little more than a procedural formality. If the parties don't reach an agreement fast enough, outside government arbitrators (who know nothing about the workers or the companies that employ them) will step in and dictate wages, benefits, work rules, and other terms of employment that workers have no choice but to accept.

The biggest winners aren't workers. It’s the union bosses. The Faster Contracts Act replaces voluntary agreement with government dictate, all while giving union officials exactly what they want: a contract imposed from above and workers locked into union representation whether they like the result or not.

The Faster Labor Contracts Act promises quicker union agreements, but it would let federal arbitrators impose contracts workers never approved.

The biggest divide in organized labor today isn't between workers and management . . . it's between union bosses and their own members.

According to a new report, United Steelworkers bosses spent millions pushing a political agenda that many rank-and-file workers never signed up for: funding LGBTQ+ activism, opposing ICE enforcement, backing left-wing political candidates and causes, and bankrolling and aligning themselves with openly communist groups tied to "No Kings" rallies.

This isn't representation. It's a ruling class of union bosses using working-class money to fund an agenda that working-class Americans repeatedly reject at the ballot box.

Maybe that's because forced dues make it a lot easier to push Big Labor's ideological agenda than voluntary support. If union bosses had to earn every dollar from the workers they claim to represent, they might think twice before spending millions on candidates and causes their own members reject.

FIRST ON THE DAILY SIGNAL—Even while polling has shown increased union member support for President Donald Trump, United Steelworkers spent millions funding

What could possibly be so important that Republicans Mike Lawler, Nick LaLota, Rob Bresnahan, Brian Fitzpatrick, Max Miller, Don Bacon, and Riley Moore are willing to join Democrats and hand Hakeem Jeffries the keys to the House?

After defeating Big Labor's PRO Act --- which would have wiped out every state Right to Work law and imposed government-written union contracts on workers and businesses -- some Republicans are now jumping on Josh Hawley’s so-called "Faster Labor Contracts Act" to give union bosses another bite at that rotten apple.

The PRO Act's forced arbitration scheme was one of the most dangerous Big Labor power grabs in decades. If a union and employer failed to reach a deal within 90 days, government-appointed arbitrators would dictate wages, benefits, and work rules for two years … without even a vote by rank-and-file workers.

Republicans stopped it once. Why are some now trying to bring it back?

You might have thought Republicans winning Congress would put a full stop on the Democrats’ infamous PRO Act to ban right to work and force workers into

Ever notice how union activists love to scream about corporate CEOs' salaries but go strangely silent when it comes to their own union bosses' lavish compensation packages?

Take Hotel Gaming and Trades Council boss Rich Maroko. While the workers he represents are required to pay union dues or lose their jobs, Maroko is reportedly taking home a compensation package approaching $1 million a year.

Here's the difference: a CEO earns money by leading a company that produces goods and services people voluntarily choose to buy. Union bosses like Maroko get rich collecting dues from workers who have no choice but to pay or be fired.

On top of that, whistleblowers allege the HTC union, which claims 400,000 dues-paying members in New York and New Jersey, is riddled with “corruption, misconduct and malfeasance." The fact is, it’s the very nature of the whole forced unionism system that makes it ripe for corruption and abuse.

The solution is simple: Right to Work. If union leaders are truly providing value to their dues-paying “customers,” workers will voluntarily support them. If not, they shouldn't be able to rely on government-backed coercion to keep the money flowing.

Fewer than 1 in 3 students can read at grade level. Only 22% of high school seniors are proficient in math. Meanwhile, public education spending is approaching $1 trillion a year.

Yet, every year, the American Federation of Teachers funnels tens of millions into far-left political causes and candidates, with only about 36 cents of every dues dollar going to represent teachers. Meanwhile, AFT president Randi Weingarten rakes in nearly $500,000 a year from union dues -- about seven times what the average teacher earns.

Educational benchmarks are collapsing. Union bosses are getting rich. And somehow we're supposed to believe the problem with education is a lack of funding. It’s time for teachers' union bosses' compensation to be tied directly to student performance . . . maybe then they’ll be more interested in what happens in the classroom rather than in the halls of Congress.

The school year is over, report cards are coming home, and parents are asking the same questions they ask at the end of every school year: Is my child learning? Are they better prepared for the future?For far too many families, the honest answer is no. According to the National Assessment of Educati...

Under Shawn Fain, the UAW has bankrolled some of the most anti-American, anti-capitalist candidates in U.S. history, from Zohran Mamdani to other members of the so-called "Democratic Socialists of America" -- comrades who could make even AOC and Bernie blush.

It makes you long for the good old days when former UAW bosses spent their time embezzling union dues for "gambling, co***ne, and fancy cars."

It's hard to imagine why JD Vance, Josh Hawley, and a handful of other Republicans have been so eager to cozy up to Fain when he and his goons openly call them "fascists" and a "menace to the working class."

A new report showed that the UAW union has given nearly $100 million in political spending to Democrats and Democratic Socialists since 2016.
