In 2012, Indiana became the twenty-third state to adopt a so-called Right to Work law. Now, in another blow to unions, it has eliminated its Common Construction Wage system.
A Republican-backed measure that will repeal Indiana’s law setting wages for state and local government construction projects has been approved by Gov. Mike Pence. Mr. Pence, a Republican, signed the legislation Wednesday and said it would allow the free market to determine pay rather than government boards. Supporters estimate that the change will reduce project costs by as much as 20 percent by allowing more contractors to pay wages below union scale. Opponents dispute such savings will occur and say it will open the door for low-paying out-of-state contractors. The repeal takes effect in July.
