Kamala Harris Targets Worker Freedoms
Sen. Kamala Harris, who would very much like to be America’s next president, told union members recently that she would issue an executive order banning Right to Work laws.

Unions are a Hotel California: You can Check Out, but You can Never Leave
After the Supreme Court’s decision in Janus v. AFSCME, union members were supposed to be allowed to leave if they wanted. That’s not how it worked out though.

Dear Amazon: National Right to Work President’s Open Letter
When politicians play games to lure companies to their state, it is oftentimes with tax breaks using money they don’t have, as was the case with New York’s tax breaks to Amazon.

Americans Want to Leave Their High Tax States

Progressive Government Destroys N.Y., California and Illinois
Move your business from these three nightmare states. Are you getting murdered by brutal taxes or just plain murdered, as in Chicago. The overall business climate in California, New York and Illinois, as well as in the anti-2nd Amendment, anti-growth policies of the nine Progressives running these three “train wrecks” is in a word […]
