To fight a Colorado bill that would make it easier for unions to collect dues, business is considering a push to make the Centennial state a so-called right-to-work state. Employers are upset with House Bill 1072, which would eliminate a second vote that typically takes place before all of a company's employees have to pay dues as a condition of employment. Business sees the bill as an opportunity to launch a union busting counter initiative that would amend the state Constitution to allow workers the option of financially supporting a union or not.
