If a recent article in Variety is any indication, it sounds like Hollywood heavyweight George Clooney may share the late Charlton Heston's distaste for forced unionism. He told Variety about his recent decision to resign his formal union membership:

"When your own union doesn't back what you've done, the only honorable thing to do is not participate."

However, Clooney must still pay some union dues since California has no Right to Work law banning forced union dues. The article continues:

Clooney says he would have quit the WGA altogether if he could, but
that would have prevented him from working on all WGA-covered
productions.

National Right to Work Foundation President Mark Mix details the Foundation's efforts to help Sai Ly Acosta and other musicians in Hollywood after union officials indicated they would be arrested for showing up for rehearsal.

ABC has apparently issued a memo advising writers wishing to continue working during the ongoing strike of their right to do so after resigning from formal union membership. States the memo:

"The decision whether to join or not join the strike is an individual decision for each person to make."

Unfortunately, many employees across America do not know about these rights or are stonewalled in excercising them by union officials. Anyone that does not want to walk off the job during a union-ordered strike can learn more about their right to continue working here.
