Right-to-Work (For Less)

Right-to-Work doesn't protect workers, it eliminates their protection. In the Midwest Region, the average construction wage breaks down this way:

State Construction Average
IL* $27.19
MO* $22.43
IN* $21.19
KS $18.85
IA $18.84
NE $18.22
TX $17.12
OK $16.85
AR $16.31
SD $15.72

* Illinois, Missouri and Indiana are NON-Right-to-Work states. Note that the average wages in the Right-to-Work states are much lower than those in the non-Right to Work (for less) states.
