Michigan governor signs right-to-work bills

LANSING, Mich. (AP) — As chants of angry protesters filled the Capitol, Michigan lawmakers gave final approval Tuesday to right-to-work legislation, dealing a devastating and once-unthinkable defeat to organized labor in a state that has been a bastion of the movement for generations.

The Republican-dominated House ignored Democrats’ pleas to delay the passage and instead approved two bills with the same ruthless efficiency that the Senate showed last week. One measure dealt with private-sector workers, the other with government employees. Republican Gov. Rick Snyder signed them both within hours, calling them ‘‘pro-worker and pro-Michigan.’’

Of course nary a mention of the assault of supporters of the right to work bill by union members.

This doesn't agree with the Globe Narrative.
