While Rep. Gary Glenn is not a sponsor of the transvaginal ultrasound bill with his two other unholy trinity members, he is busy. He has introduced legislation to expand the state's right to work law – legislation that allows folks to benefit from union negotiations and protections without actually being part of and paying dues to the union (most folks call that freeloading) – to cover law enforcement and fire fighters.
Right to Work was rammed through the state legislature in 2012 amid protests. Police and firefighters were exempted from that law, but Glenn tells MLive.com, "There is no justification for denying that same protection from public safety employees."
Police interviewed by MLive said the proposal was ill-advised, noting police and firefighters are already prohibited by law from striking, which erodes their negotiating powers.
Glenn is currently shopping the proposal to other lawmakers. Stay tuned.
