Vice President Kamala Harris is traveling through Georgia, so perhaps a local reporter could ask about her vow to ban Right to Work nationwide.
Georgia is a Right to Work state and a federally-imposed ban on Right to Work would upend Georgia’s economy.
Harris wants to ban Right to Work laws which protect at least 162 million Americans in 26 states. Right to Work laws allow workers the freedom of employment without forced payment of union dues to a union boss.
Harris said: “Banning Right to Work laws. That needs to happen.”
Further evidence of her desire to ban Right to Work: her support of the “PRO Act” — legislation which bans Right to Work.
On July 25 Harris re-stated her pledge to labor honchos that if elected she will impose the PRO Act on the American people. The legislation would ban Right-to-Work laws — including Right-to-Work laws in swing states GA, WI, AZ, and NV.
Progressive-left Harris running mate Tim Walz — a man who loves tax increases so much he blew through an $18 billion budget surplus only to raise taxes on the middle class — also frequently rails against Right to Work.
The PRO Act, introduced as H.R. 20 in the House of Representatives and S. 567 in the Senate, is the Democratic Party’s grab-bag of handouts to organized labor bosses. The primary sponsors are Congressman Bobby Scott (D-Va.) and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and the bill has the support of nearly the entire Democrat caucus: 214 additional Democrats in the House and 48 Democrats in the Senate are cosponsors of the bill.
Harris was also a cosponsor of the PRO Act during her time as the most liberal member of the Senate.
Another example of Harris calling for a Right to Work ban can be found here.
The 26 Right to Work states are: Georgia, Florida, Wisconsin, Iowa, Arizona, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, Texas, Tennessee, Indiana, Kentucky, Nevada, Oklahoma, Nebraska, South Dakota, North Dakota, Wyoming, West Virginia, Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana, Arkansas, Idaho, Utah, and Kansas.
