‘Right to work’ legal aid group not anti-union

Your article about the California mushroom workers’ suit (“Union misled farmworkers, state panel says,” Feb. 23) against the union twice mischaracterized the National Right to Work Foundation as being anti-union.

Our legal-aid organization merely assists workers in making the choice for themselves, without coercion, as to whether to join or support a union.

Union officials should work to earn employees’ voluntary support, rather than turning to the state to obtain more coercive privileges.
