Right to work's magnetic appeal

For those who consider federal policy the only game in town, right to work is an example of state policy affecting the balance of power in Congress. The public is voting with its feet in favor of freedom of association — and forced-union states, with declining populations, have diminished representation in Congress.

With the 2010 census results, right-to-work states will gain 11 House seats by redistricting, while non-right-to-work states lose nine.
