Collective Bargaining: Changes may come to many states in 2013
The past few years have been filled with high-profile labor battles that drew protestors by the thousands to statehouses around the country.
Indiana became a right-to-work state in February 2012, and state workers do not have collective bargaining rights. Still, union leaders there are gearing up for a series of fights over issues that they say would further cripple their ability to function. Indiana Republicans now have a supermajority in the legislature and are expected to take up legislation that would prohibit public employers from taking dues from any employee's paycheck, even if the employee approves the deduction.
