Via The Daily Caller:
Three Missouri Democrats signed on to a bill that would make it illegal for state legislators to even suggest laws
limiting unions? collective bargaining powers.
The legislation was sponsored by Rep. Jeff Roorda. According to the text of the bill, any legislator who proposes restrictions on collective bargaining will be subject to prosecution for a class D felony.
?Any member of the general assembly who proposes a piece of legislation that further restricts the right of an individual to bargain collectively, as set forth under section 29, article I of the Missouri Constitution, shall be guilty of a class D felony,? reads the text of the bill.
The legislation would prevent state congressmen from proposing laws such as right-to-work, a popular labor policy reform that gives individual workers the right not to join unions. Michigan recently became the 24th?right-to-work state in the nation. Missouri does not have right-to-work.
Roorda?s office did not immediately respond to requests for comment. His bill likely came in response to one proposed by Republican Rep. Mike Leara, which would similarly criminalize any efforts by legislators to restrict gun ownership.
