While that’s true, every state except for Montana has at-will employment. Despite that, unions often negotiate contract requirements that effectively guarantee job security. But if you live in a right to work state, chances are there isn’t even an option to join a union at your job, giving you no means of collective bargaining.
Doing a quick search…looks like about half the states are “right to work” ones.
And…well, I don’t live in a ‘right to work’ state, but I couldn’t join a union either way. There aren’t many unions in my line of work.
Eesh. Guess the rainbow isn’t anywhere in America, huh? I mean, it was at one time, but that was pre-1492. Hopefully some day it will change for the better.
