"Fact and Fiction About Right-to-Work: A Reality Check at the One-Year Anniversary"
James M. Hohman and Jarrett Skorup tell us about the results on the Michigan Capitol Confidential website:
"Over the longer-term, according to federal data, in the past decade right-to-work states have had an increase in jobs of 3.5 percent while non-right-to-work states have had a job decrease of 2.6 percent. And adjusted for the cost of living, employees in right-to-work states have 4.1 percent higher incomes than forced unionization states and 14 percent higher incomes than Michigan workers."
