AFFT CEO Chip Rogers explains how worker freedom and pro-growth policies are reshaping where Americans choose to live and work.
Americans are on the move—and the destinations tell an important story about economic freedom in the United States.
Over the past decade, millions of workers and families have relocated from heavily regulated states to places where opportunity is growing and workers have greater freedom on the job. A clear pattern has emerged: many of the fastest-growing states are those that protect employees from being forced to join or financially support a union as a condition of employment through Right-to-Work laws.
For supporters of worker freedom, this trend is no coincidence. Policies that prioritize worker choice, economic growth, and a competitive business climate are attracting both new residents and new investment. In the op-ed below, AFFT CEO Chip Rogers explains why migration trends are increasingly reflecting policy differences between states—and what that means for the future of America’s workforce.
