"House Bill 1468, sponsored by state Rep. Jerry Torr, R-Carmel, makes it illegal for workers in a union shop to be required to pay a 'fair share' for union services, such as collective bargaining.
Torr said he doesn't understand why union members oppose the legislation, because it doesn't affect collective bargaining rights and if unions truly are serving their members, workers will continue to join and pay dues.
'There's nothing in here to prevent 100 percent participation by employees if they believe they are well served by the union,' Torr said.
He also said if Indiana becomes the 22nd right-to-work state in the country it would attract businesses and new jobs to the state"
