The Protecting the Right to Organize (PRO) Act, which President Joe Biden has endorsed, would mainstream labor unions’ illegal dues collection practices, according to worker and business groups.
“What this bill is about is giving union officials dramatic new powers over employees. There’s nothing in this bill that deals with individual employee rights. Nothing,” National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation (NRTW) President Mark Mix told the Daily Caller News Foundation.
If the PRO Act is enshrined into U.S. law, millions of workers across the country would automatically start paying dues, even if they don’t want to, Mix said.

A city in Southwest Ohio will most likely declare itself a “sanctuary city for the unborn” and outlaw abortion within municipal limits Tuesday evening, multiple pro-life organizations said.
Lebanon’s ordinance is sponsored by six out of seven members of the city’s council, including its mayor, according to the Cincinnati Enquirer, and if passed, the ordinance would make the municipality the first town outside of Texas and Nebraska to outlaw abortion.
“We’re hoping Lebanon is the first of many cities (in Ohio) to follow,” Meg DeBlase, executive director of Right to Life of Greater Cincinnati, told the publication. “They’re really an approach to protect a city from an abortionist opening a business, from coming and selling abortion pills there.”

More than two dozen business groups have formed a coalition to fight future tax hikes proposed by Democrats and President Joe Biden, CNBC reported.
The coalition, titled “America’s Job Creators for a Strong Recovery,” is made up of 28 organizations that argue additional tax increases will punish those that create jobs and, therefore, hurt the ongoing economic recovery, according to CNBC. While President Joe Biden’s infrastructure and families plans are popular among Americans, they become less popular when people are told how they will be paid for, organizers said.
“The record tax hikes that Democrats are seeking to ram through could not come at a worse time for America’s job creators who are just beginning to recover from a crippling pandemic,” National Association of Wholesaler-Distributors (NAW) President and CEO Eric Hoplin told CNBC.

Multiple men and women who have detransitioned described how easy it was for them to get transgender surgeries and hormones in a new CBS segment and how the surgeries or treatment negatively impacted them.
As lawmakers across the country introduce and pass bills focused on gender transitions, Lesley Stahl interviewed multiple medical experts and former or current transgender people who expressed fear that transgender surgeries and hormone treatments, often irreversible, are too easily attainable.
The CBS host said the program “interviewed more than 30 detransitioners, who say they also had experienced regret, including these four, who hadn’t met before now.”
