The push to extend right-to-work protections for Michigan employees is gaining momentum, as evidenced by recent news such as this, this and this.
With that in mind, Labor Day weekend is a good time to revisit this 2007 study, "The Economic Effects of Right-to-Work Laws: 2007," by Labor Policy Director Paul Kersey, which is an update of this 2002 study.
