In the context of labor law in the United States, the term “right-to-work laws” refers to state laws that prohibit union security agreements between employers and labor unions which require employees who are not union members to contribute to the costs of union representation.
That’s so fucking confusing…
Unlike the right to work definition as a human right in international law, U.S. right-to-work laws do not aim to provide a general guarantee of employment to people seeking work but rather guarantee an employee’s right to refrain from paying or being a member of a labor union.
Okay, little less muddier now. The whole vibe is quintessential USA—some dodgy law with a misleading name.

This is where we find out Aluminum is trademarked and royalties given whenever used and that’s how Aluminium phased out…
Ahhhh thank you, I was confusing the two. I thought my state was a “right to work” state but it wasn’t on the list; I was thinking an at-will state, which my state is (which means employers can terminate without noticed and without reason, for those who don’t know the phrase).
Here’s the Wikipedia article on “right to work” for those who, like me (non-americano), didn’t know about it:

I was going to say. I know most of those states have at-will employment and thus I was so confused!

I think every state in the U.S. has at-will employment except for one, last time I check.
Edit: yup. Montana.
I did not know that, very strange but bill of Montana. Thanks
