Today the ACLU filed a lawsuit against right-to-work legislation.
Michigan Public Radio's Jake Neher spoke with Cyndy about the suit and its potential implications.
“They say for about four hours on the day right-to-work started moving through the legislature, the doors were closed. They say that that violates the Michigan Constitution which guarantees the residents of Michigan the right to assemble. There were people from the public inside at the time, they just weren’t letting in others," said Neher.
According to Neher, people across the state feel as if their voices are underrepresented.
“The people that brought this bill up say that they’re concerned that a win-or-take-all system for votes leaves people in certain parts of the state without a voice,” said Neher.
