Policy Agenda

In Kansas, public workers automatically opt-in to public unions against their wishes. With their dues, these public unions make political statements and campaigns that sometimes are in opposition to the views of public workers. This process is a form of forced speech and public workers should have freedom when it comes to joining a public union. Americans for Prosperity believes public workers should have freedom of choice, fairness, and be free from any coercion. Workers should also have the ability to own their own benefits and direct their own future with flexibility and certainty.
