“Right to Work” is Wrong for Minnesota!
· Right to Work legislation is unnecessary: it doesn’t actually create any jobs. Minnesota’s unemployment rate is lower than the national average and lower than in Right to Work states. Nurses in Minnesota earn an average of $16,000 more than those in Right to Work states.
· Right to Work is unfair. It would force dues paying union members to pay for the representation of coworkers that don’t pay anything.
· Right to work is unsafe: Having a strong, collective voice allows nurses to advocate for safe staffing, safe patient care, and safe working conditions.
