Right to work. Please advise. [View all]

Ok, I am in a small, independent union. I love my union. However, we are not political at all, nor does my union educate us much. I have heard of right to work. On paper, it seems to offer a choice. However, I have heard also that it ends up being bad for the worker. We don't have it in Ohio, so I have no experience with it. What, exactly, is it. Basically, I am asking how it would negatively impact local cops like me? Also, what impact would it have on a larger scale? If I read it correctly, it would allow people to get the benefits of membership without having to share the cost of membership. Is that right? Thanks to all who for your help.
