Impact on Workers 

 

 

Workers seeking employment on GMLA projects are required to join one or more 

designated unions and pay union dues, or agency fees instead of union dues in right-to-work 

states, regardless of their preference for union representation and without an opportunity to vote 

on that choice.  Furthermore, whether or not they are employed on the project will depend on 

how their experience and past union affiliations conform to union hiring hall priorities, not on 

credentials evaluated by employers.
