In 2017, Wisconsin adopted right-to-work legislation. Labor unions opposed it, claiming it was unlawful. Their main argument was that the law, in conjunction with the responsibility to deliver just representation, was just a way for the administration to limit the strength of labor unions. They claimed that it would take the Unions' money, as it forced them to spend in service to non-members.

Based on a precedent from a previous United States Supreme Court decision, the court settled that the right-to-work legislation was not an illegal acquisition. It seems to enforce the labor unions' responsibility to act and bar them from taking dues from non-members.

Even though the Unions argued that it affected their finances, the court decided that labor unions could raise funds to finance their services in other ways. However, this ruling was met with different views, with some seeing it as unfavorable for labor unions.

The adoption of the legislation allowed workers of a mainly unionized labor force not to be required to join a labor union. Unions can fight for a better working environment for a whole population of employees and ensure that every worker, irrespective of being a member, gains from the hard work of a shared bargaining agreement.

This law was perceived to de-incentivize union membership because employees can gain all the benefits without paying dues. As a result, the adoption of the law led to an extreme decline in union membership in the state.

According to some, the right-to-work legislation implemented by Wisconsin has limited the Unions' ability to bargain for increased workplace safety and benefits since their membership has declined. Some say the right-to-work law is comprehensively unfavorable to the working class and will probably have an undesirable effect on the workplace environments and many employees. 

The question for debate is, should Wisconsin get rid of its Right-to-Work legislation?
