Opposition to the Right-to-Work Amendment

October 23, 1958 — Heshvan 9, 5719

The Public Affairs Committee of the Cincinnati Board of Rabbis is opposed to the right-to-work amendment. After careful study it has come to the conclusion that this law would nullify the economic and social gains of labor. It would create havoc in industrial relations and incite unrest and discontent. It would deprive the working man of some of his most cherished rights.

In this statement we join other religious groups, notably the Catholic Bishops and the Ohio Council of Churches, who have expressed their disapproval of this law.
