Issue Position: Right-to-Work

Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2012
Issues: Labor Unions

Peter supports Governor Lynch's veto of the Right to Work bill (HB 474). The debate is clearly driven by national outside interest groups and has not been an issue for either New Hampshire businesses or workers. In 1985, the publisher of the Union Leader, a Republican, Nackey Loeb, said in part: "Those who support the bill in the name of freedom of choice have forgotten freedom of voice." She went on to say: "Those who want the "right to work" bill in New Hampshire are, we suspect hypocritical in claiming to defend the rights of the common man. They show little interest in preserving New Hampshire's healthy business and industry climate for the welfare of all." I could not agree more.
