Nationwide Right To Unionize Act

This bill would end state “right-to-work” laws for private‑sector workplaces. It does this by removing the part of federal law that lets states ban union agreements that require employees to be union members (or follow union membership rules) as a condition of employment. In short, states could no longer prohibit these agreements. Unions and employers could include them in contracts nationwide, if they choose to do so .

Key points:

• Who is affected: Private‑sector workers, unions, and employers in states that currently have right‑to‑work laws .
• What changes: Repeals the section of federal law (NLRA 14(b)) that allows states to ban union‑membership‑required agreements, effectively preempting state right‑to‑work laws .
• When: Would apply after it becomes law; the text does not set a special start date .
