1. i really wish people wouldn't refer to these laws by their GOP Branding name

"Right to work for less" is how these should be referred to.

that being said, as a Michigan voter, I'm proud to say I helped make this happen

2. It really should be called "NO rights at work"...

...because that's what you get with these kinds of labor laws.

5. As a former union member I see them as work for us, or dont work at all laws.

I say that because it was what I was told when I was laid off and tried to get permission to work for a non union shop, it was denied. Or more accurately sorry we have no work for you, and we wont give you permission to get a job elsewhere.

I am all for unions but I should not be forced to work for one just to have a job. It should be optional, want to be in one, then be in one. Dont want to be in one, then dont. It should be a choice in my mind.

3. Bless you!

And bless Michigan!

4. There were actually two bills passed by the state House

… and both passed by one vote margins.
