Montgomery, Alabama

MONTGOMERY, Ala. — Alabama lawmakers voted Tuesday to withhold economic incentive dollars from companies that voluntarily recognize a union instead of holding a secret ballot election.

“It doesn’t stop unions. It just gives the employee the right to vote in private,” Republican Rep. Scott Stadthagen said during debate.
