AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would repeal a section of the National Labor Relations Act that allows states to pass laws banning agreements that require workers to be union members as a condition of employment. These state laws are often called right-to-work laws. Removing this section would end the federal law's permission for states to prohibit such union membership agreements.
