Washington, DC (March 10, 2015)<\/b> \u2013 The National Right to Work Foundation is offering free legal aid to Wisconsin private-sector workers seeking to exercise their right under Wisconsin’s newly-enacted Right to Work law to refrain from union membership and union dues payments.<\/p>\n
On Monday, Governor Scott Walker signed the nation’s newest Right to Work law, effective Wednesday, March 11, 2015. Under the law, workers will no longer be required to pay union dues as a condition of employment once the current union monopoly bargaining agreement in their workplace expires.<\/p>\n
The National Right to Work Foundation has a long history of assisting employees seeking to exercise their Right to Work rights, most recently under Right to Work provisions enacted in Indiana and Michigan. Foundation attorneys also provided free legal representation to Wisconsin public-sector employees who sought to refrain from paying union dues or fees under Walker’s 2011 public-sector union reforms, commonly referred to as \u00abAct 10.\u00bb<\/p>\n
Mark Mix, president of the National Right to Work Foundation, issued the following statement:<\/p>\n
\u00abNo worker should ever be forced to join or pay dues to a union as a condition of their employment. That is why Wisconsin’s new Right to Work law is a great advance for worker freedom. Today, workers in Wisconsin finally have Right to Work protections.<\/p>\n
\u00abUnfortunately, union officials won’t give up their forced dues power easily. In addition to fighting Governor Walker in court, it won’t be surprising to see them make it difficult for workers to exercise their rights. Workers who try to exercise those rights may encounter stonewalling, intimidation, or harassment at the hands of union officials.<\/p>\n
\u00abIn response, the National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation, a charitable organization that provides free legal assistance to employees nationwide, has created a special task force to defend workers seeking to exercise their Right to Work.<\/p>\n
\u00abAffected employees are encouraged to call the Foundation’s legal hotline toll-free at 1-800-336-3600 or contact the Foundation through its award-winning website at www.nrtw.org.\u00bb<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
