What prompted Michigan lawmakers, after years of not enacting right-to-work laws, to suddenly change course over the past week? Some argue it was the endorsement of the idea by the Michigan Chamber of Commerce last week, while state Senator John Proos says pressure came from our neighbor to the south after Indiana passed the law in the spring.
The state House passed two bills on Tueday, one going to Governor Snyder for his signature and the other needing one more vote in the state Senate. The governor is expected to sign the legislation by the end of the week. The bills were not given "immediate effect," meaning they will become law 90 days after the current legislative session ends at the end of this month.
