The unions racketeers tried to ammend the Michigan State Constitution with proposals #2 and #4 in the November election and the electorate by a wide margin defeated both measures. The newly passed RTW laws are the reaction by the legislature responding to the recent vote of their constituents to reign in the power of organized labor by denying it the right to extort funding from non union members.
Labor had become too powerful and too arrogant wielding its power and the citizens/taxpayers and their elected representatives recognised that and have taken the steps to thwart such power and to thwart the future abuse of power by diminishing it.
