Indiana took a big step toward becoming the 23rd state in the nation with the controversial “right to work” law on the books, as the Senate passed the measure late Monday.
The House could vote on an identical version of the bill today — if, that is, enough House Democrats are present to let a vote take place.
Democrats have repeatedly shut down the House this session, denying Republicans the quorum they need to do business, and they went behind closed doors again late Monday.When Republicans get to take votes on this bill, they have the numbers to win. They proved it in the House on Monday, as they rejected every amendment Democrats offered, including one proposal to let voters decide the issue in a referendum.
Thousands of labor union members packed the House and Senate galleries and filled the hallways outside both chambers Monday. About 110 union members from a Munster laborers union even went to the home of House Speaker Brian Bosma, R-Indianapolis, to protest the bill.
“Mr. Bosma and the Republican Party have made it their intention to hit us at our dinner table, so that’s where we want to hit him,” said Kevin Roach, business manager of Laborers’ International Union Local 41.
Bosma, though, said later: “This isn’t my first time to be intimidated or bullied about. It’s not going to stop anything.”
That was clear in the Statehouse. For nearly two hours in the Senate, lawmakers from both sides of the aisle argued passionately, each side citing statistics crafted to back its views.
As union protesters chanted “You lie” outside the Senate chambers, bill author Sen. Carlin Yoder, R-Middlebury, said the legislation will lower unemployment and result in higher-paying jobs. “We’ve heard the argument that ‘right to work’ really means right to work for less,” he said, “and I respectfully disagree with that.”
But Democrats said the legislation is instead an escalator taking Indiana down to lower-paying jobs and unsafe working conditions. Senate Minority Leader Vi Simpson, D-Ellettsville, said lawmakers should legislate by evidence and not anecdote. There’s no solid data proving that “right to work” laws lead to economic development, she said. ‘Right to work’ is nothing more than a race to the bottom for the middle class of Indiana,” she said.
When youâre listening to Mitch Daniels tonight, and hearing pundits afterwards tell us how smart he is and how moderate he is and how heâs the future of principled conservatism, remember that he lied to these people in order to get elected governor. He told them he wouldnât go after private sector union members. Then he did.
Oh, and just for the record?
Hereâs the unemployment rate in Indiana again.
Indiana under Daniels gave away the store to business interests and they got absolutely nothing in return. Gutted business regulation, gutted environmental regulation, sold state assets, deregulated and privatized public schools, destroyed public sector unions, and the unemployment rate in Indiana is comparable to the midwest states around Indiana, states that didn’t make all the concessions demanded by the “job creators”. The promised jobs never arrived.
When John Boehner speaks of Mitch Daniels he has to claim that Daniels was working on “a climate for job creation.” Not jobs. A “climate” where jobs might blow in like the weather, maybe, sometime, depending. Boehner has to use that odd and abstract language because Boehner knows what the unemployment rate is in Indiana, and he also knows that Daniels is a two-term governor who had a free hand to put in place the whole conservative-libertarian wish list. For years. That’s all in place, but the job creators just keep on demanding more concessions from Indiana, and Mitch Daniels just keeps handing them over.

Am I too early with the “elections have consequences” banter? So sorry Indiana…maybe your voters enjoy making RVs for $9/hr, because, ya know, gays are icky and global warming is so fake.

“Right to work” means “right to get richer” for CEOs of corporations.
General Stuck
I know you get your dander up on these issues, Kay, so I will just say Karma is a beautiful thing, and I have a feeling that creating a right to work state in the heart of midwestern manufacturing zone, will not go over as well as in say, a Wyoming, or MS, or any number or southern welfare states that depend on the healthy blue states that pay their workers something they in turn pay more in taxes, to keep the paupers in Haley Barbour’s state fed and clothed.
I predict they will pay a price in Indiana, maybe, being the northern most confederate state.

It’s only “underground” because pundits don’t care about it, despite all the fake hand-wringing over the “middle class” and who appeals to “working class voters”.

Kay, great post.
Funny how that works.
RepubAnon
No, no, no – Indiana’s unemployment problem stems from Mitch Daniel’s slow pace of reforms. The jobs will pour in once he eliminates all labor and environmental laws and passes new laws allowing 12 hour/day, 7 day per week shifts by workers paid $10/day and housed in company-run dormitories (plus tort reform laws that forbid workers from suing their employers, but allow the employers to sue the surviving family members of any worker that commits suicide).

@RepubAnon: One of the things we seem to have lost is the idea that if you make small changes and see results, then we can make bigger changes. People have lost sight of that, and have bought into the idea that it will magically work when all resistance is removed. I know why – the ideas match their preconceived notions – but we’ve got to cure it somehow. I’m just wondering how many of these people would raise their kids this way: “But mom, my grades will improve when you let me stay up all night.”
RosiesDad
I am also of the “elections have consequences” school of thought. If the voters of Indiana elected Mitch Daniels and Republican majorities in both chambers of their state legislature, they should get to enjoy the policies these people enact. And if they don’t like it, they can vote for change the next time around. Obstructing the will of the majority by skipping out of town to prevent a quorum is a bullshit tactic.

I hate to say it but Newt may be right in this one. The media ‘elites’ don’t and won’t tell this story accurately. Now, Newt sucks, god I hope he’s the nominee. Is there any way someone could smuggle in rotted vegetables to pelt Daniels with as he gives his rebuttal? That would rock so much.

Morton had already made several unconstitutional moves, including the establishment of the state arsenal, and the Democrats decided to attempt to rein him in. When the legislature sought to remove the state militia from his command and transfer it to a state board of Democratic commissioners, Morton immediately broke up the General Assembly. He feared that once in control of militia, the Democrats might attempt to overthrow him and secede from the Union. He issued secret instructions to Republican legislators, asking them to stay away from the capitol to prevent the General Assembly from attaining the quorum needed for the body to pass any legislation. With Morton’s aid, the Republicans fled to Madison where they could quickly flee into Kentucky should the Democrats attempt to forcibly return them to the capitol.[15][16][17]

If the Indiana Democratic legislators can take the boycott to the next election and explain it honestly, and win, it is not a BS tactic.
They represent their districts, and need to do what they need to do to look after the interests of their constituents. If the issue is serious enough, and the majority party lied to the people, then extreme measures may be required.
A group of legislators who are obstructionist, and then lie about it, that is a BS tactic.

@RosiesDad: : Are you arguing that the public should vote on it then? Because in that case I agree with you. However in this case the people elected lied about their position on the matter, so it’s hard to prove that the ‘will of the people’ was for right to work. The thing about right-to-work is that it is really up for debate whether or not it affects anyone other than the people in unions, and whether or not agency fee payers really clamor for it. It has been proven, however, to adversely affect the wages of workers in states where it has been implemented, and most of all it adversely affects the financial positions of unions, who disproportionately donate to Democratic candidates.

That isn’t true for conservatives in these states. Mitch Daniels didn’t run on RTW. In fact, he denied it.
The GOP governor of Michigan is denying he’s going after unions right now, because he doesn’t want to lose the margin of union members who vote GOP.
