Thank you Governor Snyder.... You are one tough nerd... So much for Granholm's "Green energy state" that was a colossal failure....... Libs hate tangible results......



Passing right-to-work has been a catalyst for Michigan's economy, which may be why Wisconsin is so eager to pass its own law. Since right-to-work work took effect in March 2013, 142,000 more people are employed in Michigan and private-sector weekly earnings have increased 5.4 percent, outpacing the national average of 3.7 percent.
Among its neighboring states in the Midwest, only Indiana-itself a recent right-to-work state-outpaced Michigan in job growth over the period.
A major reason for the quickly growing economy is that more companies are looking at Michigan as a destination for expanding their business. Shortly after right-to-work passed, a Chicago-based real estate developer explained the rationale to Site Selection Magazine: "[W]hen there are companies who are looking for locations, Michigan will no longer be eliminated because they are not a right-to-work state."
