them before they go to general debate. The majority of bills and resolutions never make it out of committee.

This is similar to the National Labor Relations Act which met muster on impsing basic labor roghts on states. Answered by a visitor on Dec 17, 2009 2:32 PM -
This has no effect on right to work. Section 8 of HR 413 states that nothing in the Act shall be construed to prevent a state from enforcing regulations prohbiting the negotiation and adoption by the parties of amandatory union membership or the payment of union fees, commonly known as union security clauses, as a condition of employment. This right was granted to state governments in 1947 by the Taft-Hartly amendments to the NLRA. Currently 22 states have outlawed union security clauses. |
