End of Union Membership Bans: New Worker Rights Across the U.S.

This act repeals the authority for states to enact laws prohibiting agreements requiring union membership as a condition of employment. This means that employees in states that previously had such bans may now be required to join a union or pay dues if their workplace is covered by a collective bargaining agreement. This change could impact the strength of labor unions and employment conditions in many workplaces.
