Extend worker freedom to all of New Hampshire
AFTER THE landmark U.S. Supreme Court decision on worker freedom, Janus v. AFSCME, New Hampshire now has the opportunity to become the first state in the Northeast to pass right-to-work legislation and expand freedom for thousands of workers.
The court found that because collective bargaining with the government affects public policy issues like pension liabilities, taxes, spending and more, it equates to lobbying and thus political speech. Public employees are now protected from having their hard-earned money automatically deducted from their paycheck and directed toward political speech they may disagree with.
Quick Thought: One would think that all Republicans would be voting FOR more Individual Freedoms…use your vote against them
From the NH GOP Platform:
- Support legislation to allow workers to decide the allocation of the portion of their union dues used for political purposes
- We believe in free people, free markets and free enterprise
To that latter point – if unions have the mindset that they can prevent competition and lock potential workers out of jobs, that’s no longer a free labor market. And those locked out of a job because it is a closed shop are no longer free to compete. On those two points, Americans For Prosperity NH (“AFP”) is now about to do the job that the NH GOP continuously fails to do – holding RINOS that stray to supporting the Democrat agenda accountable. From the Union Leader (emphasis mine, reformatted):
Two take-aways from NH’s “opting out” of the all but mandatory paid family medical leave act HB 628
From the UL, Jeb Bradley seems to want to out do Donald Kreis in a given intellectual proposition (a few fries less than a current Happy Meal):
In the week before the bill came up for Senate committee review, however, he issued a letter in opposition. The program as proposed called for payroll deductions except for those who opt-out. Sununu said he would like to see a detailed financial analysis of a bill that would establish a program on an entirely opt-in or voluntary basis. “The financial questions have to be answered. It starts with an actuarial analysis of what a voluntary program would look like,” said Senate Majority Leader Jeb Bradley, R-Wolfeboro. “There’s been no voluntary program in any other states. That’s the starting point, so we can understand the financial dynamics.”
Well, SURE there are voluntary systems, there Jeb – it’s called the Private Sector.
