Alabama Governor Kay Ivey recently signed Senate Bill 231, a controversial bill that will impact economic incentives offered to companies in the state. The legislation, effective immediately, stipulates that companies will lose these incentives if they voluntarily recognize labor unions or if they do not conduct a secret ballot election for union recognition. This move comes amid a significant UAW vote at Mercedes, highlighting the state's firm stance on unionization, which contrasts sharply with more union-friendly states like Michigan.

Alabama has passed an ALEC-backed bill that would ban state subsidies for companies that voluntarily recognize employee unions. This means businesses will have to fight unionization, instead of working with their employees, if they want to get money from the state.
