14. 'They' who? Lawyers?
Thu Mar 5, 2015, 12:31 AM
Mar 2015

Lawyers work for millions of employers, including for themselves, and must be 'certified' as suitable to work, via their states' Bar exam and process. They may or may not be required to pay fees to their state's Bar certifier, to maintain their eligibility to practice law.

If you're suggesting that lawyers would not be required to so pay, if 'right to work' law were adopted by their states, many might be glad of that except that they/we need someone to tell clients and employers that we are, in fact, suitably educated and informed, and legitimate, like doctors.
