The Worker's Choice Act of 2023 would amend federal labor law to allow employees in right-to-work states to negotiate individually with their employers instead of being bound by union contracts, even if they work in unionized workplaces. Under the bill, employees in these states who stop paying union dues or leave union membership would have the right to bargain directly with their employer separately from the collective bargaining agreement, and unions would no longer be required to represent or provide services to these workers. The legislation would also prevent unions from interfering with or discouraging employees from engaging in this independent negotiation. The bill contains no specific funding provisions or implementation timelines, and it applies only to states with right-to-work laws that already prohibit requiring workers to pay union fees as a condition of employment.
