Now that NH has a Republican governor to sign a right-to-work law, maybe we could pass one. Why do we care? Simple. No Right to Work, no corporate investment. No factories, warehouses, ternimals, help centers, nothing. If the state isn't right to work, companies go elsewhere. NH needs investment to create jobs. Every June, we see all our new high school and college graduates leave the state to find decent paying work. I'll grant that NH has a low unemployment rate, but that's largely because the unemployed, being hard working New Hampsters, leave the state to find work, rather that drawing welfare.
To create jobs, we need someone, corporations mostly, to build factories and other facilities. And we need to attract corporations to expand in NH. If we passed right to work, we would be the ONLY right to work state for 500 miles in every direction. There has got to be companies that need a facility in the Northeast. If NH was right to work, all those facilities would be built in NH.
