The story behind this shirt

A 2022 NBER event study tracked five states before and after their own right-to-work law took effect (2011-2017) and found union density fell about 4 percentage points within five years, nearly 13 points in heavily unionized industries like construction and public administration, with wages down roughly 1 percent overall and more than 4 percent in those industries. Comparing right-to-work and non-right-to-work states directly, the same research finds density about 20 percent lower and wages about 7.5 percent lower where the law is in place. The front print says "Right-to-work laws cut wages within five years." and, under it, the address of the Right-to-Work Laws page on this site, where the claim sits with its evidence, the best case against it, and the answer.
