The issue is that the union provides a public good. Strike for a pay rise? Your non-union colleagues will get that too. Hire a lawyer to sue for better health and safety? Employees who never paid their dues will benefit.
These concerns don't persuade me personally that Right to Work laws are bad. I'm just telling you they exist and probably have some validity.

UPS corporate has a totally different set of benefits, pay, and expectations from their Teamster counterparts. I may have misunderstood what you meant though.
