Right to Work Laws Improve Access to Pensions

### Forced Unionism Reduces Employers’ Ability to Furnish Pension Coverage

Forced-unionism apologists often concede that job growth, both overall and private-sector in particular, is far more brisk in Right to Work states than in non-Right to Work states. But after making such concessions, they invariably claim that the jobs created in Right to Work states aren’t good jobs with good benefits.

However, data compiled by the Washington, D.C.-based Economic Policy Institute (EPI) in a long-term, ongoing study of the trends in private-sector pension access in the 50 states debunk one of Big Labor propagandists’ standard charges against state Right to Work legislation.
