Is Right-to-Work Racist? [Michigan Capitol Confidential]
Stacy Swimp, president of the Frederick Douglass Society in Flint, recently wrote that "right-to-work works for Black Americans."
"From 2000 to 2010 right-to-work states’ black population increased by 17.4 percent, well over double the 7.6 percent increase for forced-unionism states as a group," Swimp wrote.
"The 9.8 percentage point advantage in black population growth in right-to-work states even outpaced the 9 percentage point edge right-to-work states registered in white population growth.
"Big Labor apologists who are now trying to play the race card against right-to-work laws need to answer one simple question:
If forced unionism is so good for black Americans, why are they fleeing in droves from the states where this exploitative system is still in place?"
