The two major supporters of Right To Work (for less) are
the National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation and the aforementioned
National Right to Work Committee. Both are funded by large corporations and

consist overwhelmingly of dues and fees that millions of workers are forced to
fork over as a condition of employment.
