Establish a right to work act

This bill, titled the Worker Freedom Act, establishes Montana as a right-to-work state by prohibiting employers from requiring employees to join or financially support a labor organization as a condition of employment. It mandates that any wage deductions for union dues must be based on written employee authorization that can be revoked at any time, and it requires employers to post notices informing workers of their freedom of choice regarding union membership. The legislation also declares illegal any agreements between employers and unions that violate these rights and imposes misdemeanor penalties with fines up to $1,000 for violations, while allowing affected individuals to seek civil damages and attorney fees. The law applies to most employers in the state but excludes federal employees, those on federal land, and industries covered by federal labor laws.
